Year One have been in to the woods today to identity and classify trees and leaves. They spotted signs of seasonal change, collecting leaves from all over the woods and sorted them using hoops and their own titles. They used titles like evergreen, deciduous, curved and spanner orange! Great ideas everyone! 🍁
