Nature Journal

Lily watches a new show on PBS (since we still don't have TV) called Sid the Science Kid. They made a Nature Journal and collected leaves to compare and contrast. Lily and I decided that would be something fun to do. Monday we started early collecting leaves for our project. It is a continuing project of collecting butterfly wings, leaves of different variety, and so forth.

Here are some pictures from her first entry. You can see comparison of color and size, also shapes. Some where also fuzzy and tickled her and one she said looked like Minnie Mouse's bow.



First Lily seperated the leaves by color, then size.
Then we looked at patterns and texture.


Here you can see three piles.


These are two small flowers with leaves.


These are yellow and brown but the same kind of leaves.


This is the biggest and the smallest leaf we found.
Do you know what kind of leaves they are? 
They are an oak leaf and a blade of grass.
