Week 4 - Autumn Homework & Photos

We went for an autumn walk on Monday. Before the walk we shared things we knew about autumn. When we got back to class, we shared new things we saw on our walk. Then we thought about what we else would like to know about autumn. Here are our questions:

• Why does the leaf and stalk have to be different colours?
• Why are the leaves colourful?
• Why do the leaves fall off the trees?
• How do leaves grow?
• Why do the leaves change colours?
• Why do the trees grow leaves?
• Why are the leaves big and small and different shapes?
• Why do some of the leaves have more than one colour?
• Why are some trees still green?

Please read the questions again and choose 2-3 to answer in your poem/homework books (or on a piece of paper) and bring into class tomorrow. We are going to add some of these facts to our autumn stories. 

Here are some of the pictures from our walk.
