Nature Study

Okok, I am on the roll since I found out Blogspot is now totally and wonderfully compatible to IPhoto. No more transferring files to desktop or waiting for an hour for EACH photo to upload!!!

Now those who know my hb know one of his passion is in the sciences. In order not to short change his children, we do quite a bit of nature studies in our home learning journey. Also since they learn at home, we can afford more depth in our learning.

Here we learn about plant parts. We collect twigs and branches and leaves and pieces of bark etc.

CY and CH's work on mahjong sheet

The next few photos show CY's learning journey using guide form NP website: http://www.nparks.gov.sg/cms/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=176&Itemid=161

Raintree, so far CY's fav :)


Yellow Flame. We are having a hard time finding them since it is not the flowering season so no flowers no fruits


Trumpet tree. Managed to find it near our home, the leaf is the evidence of our nature trek :P


The beautiful Tembusu tree. These can be found near Woodlands Park. Amazing silhouette!



These are all work-in-progress and we are still trying to identify all the trees in our neighbourhood :)
