Botany Lesson | Broadleaf Deciduous Trees

While following the Live Education Waldorf Botany curriculum, we completed the lesson on conifers and was about to start the next big section of lessons with a study of monocots and dicots when I decided to add a couple lessons on broadleaf trees. While it made sense in the moment to add this lesson here (between conifers and monocots), in retrospect, I can see if would have been better after the introduction of flowering plants/trees.

In these lessons we used the book Botanicum as content and illustration inspiration, especially the pages devoted to broadleaf trees and temperate forests. While we drew leaves and acorns of various trees, none were local, so I planned for another lesson on the Interior Live Oak which is broadleaf, but until most broadleaf trees, also evergreen.

This lesson is the content and illustration for half the lesson, as the following lesson showing three more varieties leaves is part of this lesson and was delivered together.
