Evergreen Lesson Plans

Students  compare deciduous and evergreen trees. In this tree lesson, students list the differences between these two species of trees.

Students investigate nature by identifying different plants and trees. In this environmental field trip, students participate in a British Columbia expedition in which they identify cedar, pine, hemlock and Douglas fir trees. Students complete a worksheet which they draw pictures on.

Learners determine the difference between needle leaf (evergreen) and broad leaf (deciduous) trees. They use their senses of touch and smell in order to identify their tree. Through identification, they develop a sense of connection.

Students present what they have learned on Antartica. Students identify deciduous and evergreen trees and plants; identify and study about the habitats of animals that migrate, hibernate, and adapt; study the Aurora and Aurora Borealis light phenomenon in the Arctic regions. Students create Non-Fiction Research Reports on animals of Antarctica and the Arctic

In this lesson learners explore tree species based on their features. In this tree lesson, learners visit a wooded area and work with a partner to describe distinctive features of trees using all of the senses except "sight." A discovery worksheet is provided, completed with a partner, and discussed with the whole class.

In this lesson 6th graders practice identifying trees. In this science lesson plan, 6th graders gain an understanding about how leaf arrangement and structure can be used for tree identification.

This lesson has learners explore the First Nations uses of the Western Cedar tree. In this nature lesson learners compare and identify four conifer species. The learners go on a nature walk.

In this lesson learners discover depth in photographs or paintings by creating a picture from scrap paper.  In this art analysis lesson, learners practice creating depth by placing different elements higher or lower on a picture.  In this lesson learners utilize torn paper to form snowmen which become the center pieces of their image.  Mountains and Trees are used in the background.

Students practice their addition by participating in a Christmas Tree activity.  In this holiday math lesson, students complete math problems at their desk and match their answers with ornaments on a tree.  Students are given an ornament for each correct answer.

This lesson has students recognize that the Christmas tree is one symbol of Christmas, then demonstrate their ability to identify symbols. They compare the lightstock (Christmas pyramid) with the Paradise tree and apply their knowledge about the history of ornaments.
