Autumn Leaf Books

This week, the Bees took a break from the self-portrait projects to make Autumn Leaf Books. We looked at different leaves and identified them together as a class. The leaves we identified are: oak, sassafras, birch, elm, and maple.

Each student received a book with 12 pages. First we created our cover with a title and byline.

Then we carefully drew the leaves from observation, paying special attention to the edges, veins, and other details.

Next we learned how to create rubbings with the flat side of our crayon and added them to our books.
