BC Guides Tree-mendous Challenge Badge

This week we started our new challenge all about trees.
We did a nature search game outside before learning about the way trees grow.
We learned to read tree rings and tried to figure out why our trees might have grown a lot or a little and under which conditions this might occur. We talked about weather, fires and other natural reasons for different types of growth. 

We also learned to HUG A TREE and SURVIVE!
We watched a video and then coloured a fact sheet about the things you need to do to survive when lost in the woods. 

Here is our first craft from this week.
