Recount of Visit to Skinflats Wood Day 1

On Thursday all of us went to the Skinflats Woods. We wanted to go to the woods to look at trees and shrubs.
First we thought of some rules. Three whistles meant we go back to base.
Next we thought about trees. A tree has a single tall trunk and the branches don’t grow less than 30cm from the ground. They are over 3 metres high and the girth is at least 30cm. There were all sorts of trees. There were trees with needles called coniferous and trees with flat, green leaves called deciduous.

Then Mrs. Lennie gave me an envelope to put the leaves in. We found dog rose trees.
It felt like it took me a long time to get back because I was so tired from walking.
My favourite part was talking about all the different kinds of trees. I liked finding out about leaves being all different colours, shapes and sizes.
