Tree
planting is what a Minnesota Arbor Celebration is all about. Just
one tree planted on Arbor Day does more than shade the spot
where it's planted. It gives root to the love of trees and
the stewardship of renewable resources. A Teachers Guide to
Arbor Month is designed to easily integrate learning about trees
into your regular school curriculum. This cross-curriculum thematic
guide offers learning activities to supplement lessons in:
language art, math, music, art, social studies, science,
health, and physical education. It is also an ideal enhancement
to your
environmental education programs, and can help you meet Minnesota
graduation standards for environmental education.
In addition, the Resource section contains a valuable collection
of reference materials on many topics about trees. Most
of the pages are designed as ready-to-use and are ideally suited
for independent learning projects in the upper elementary and
junior high grades.
