Tree Identification - Assignment #1
Tree Identification #1
Name: Block: Date:
Since we have not been able to get into the school for classwork I am looking at interesting ways to teach about woodwork and related course material.
In this short video I walk around and we look at some tree local to Kamloops about a 10 minute drive from the Westsyde area. The first assignment we are going to attempt will be identifying trees based solely on external characteristics (what it looks like!)
Here is a short video to watch. Respond in the google classroom with what you think are the answers to each of the trees I show in the video:
