Mavi and I have been collecting leaves to use for our leaf/leaves study. I purchased this Botany Cabinet Shapes cards from Montessori Print Shop to introduce the different leaf shapes.
Then I had my son observe each leaf that we have collected, to look at it for while and differentiate each one from another.
We matched the leaves to the control cards. This portion here was very challenging. It was hard to identify the shapes of some leaves :)
I didn’t want to dispose the leaves yet so I decided that we might take a look at leaf margins as well. Here we tape the leaves to a white paper and observe the margins of each leaf for a while.
Then I made him trace the leaves. We differentiated that some leaves have smooth margins, while others were spiky.
This is what we ended up later.
