Fall is nearly here!
I love summer, but fall is a close runner-up for my favorite time of year.
The leaves change colors, the weather gets cool, plus we get to start baking and knitting!
So I thought I’d share a set of printable leaf identification flashcards!
These are perfect for fall learning, but you can really use them anytime of the year.
They’d also be great for a spring unit, since that’s when plants begin to flower again.
I am woefully ignorant about plant species, so I learned quite a bit by making these.
I hope you and your students enjoy them as well!
Plus, keep reading to see how to get a set of expanded leaf identification activity cards for your class too!
