Description of the Leaf collection assignment of 1997-1998. Your leaf collection will include a total of 12 leaves. Your leaves should be as undamaged as possible.
Spring is the best time to collect leaves.
I will understand a little insect damage due to the fact that we are collecting the leaves in the fall of the year. The leaves should be dried flat . This can be done by putting them between the pages of magazines or newspapers and laying something heavy on them for a few days to a week. Another way is to place each leaf between two pieces of wax paper, placing a sheet of notebook paper on top and ironing all layers with a hot iron. If you use this method, be sure you have an adult help you.
