Plant identification - a great way to get outside with the kids and show
them how to use reference materials/do research, discuss
attributes/identifying characteristics, use descriptive vocabulary,
common uses and discriminate what a reliable sources of information is.
Its like a scavenger hunt! What plant is this?
Here are some great resources:
-Alaska Native Plant Society
