Tree Notes Mrs. Engbrecht 7th Grade Red Team
There are 2 types of trees • What is the major difference between trees in the back yard of the school?
Deciduous Looses leaves in the fall Coniferous Keeps leaves all year 2 Types of Trees
Parts of Conifer Leaf • Leaf • Green needle part • Sheath • Papery covering • Holds needles together • Twig • Small part of the branch

Deciduous Leaf Parts • Veins • Midrib vein • Down the middle • Petiole • Stem
Deciduous Leaf Parts • Blade • Main green part • Contains chloroplasts • Node • Where leaf attaches • Twig
Final Thought • Take the names of trees that you know and try to put them in to the two categories that you now know.
Acronym • Write down what you think this word means.
BASS V LEGS • Bark description (color and texture on twigs) • Alternate around/alternate beside/opposite/whorled • Simple/pinnate/double pinnate/palmate • Shape of tree (without leaves) • Veins (pinnate/palmate/parallel) • Lobed/unlobed blades • Edge (smooth – coarse/finely toothed) • General leaf size (width and length of one blade) • Seeds (describe and rub/draw)
Differences • Look at your list of differences and see if you came up with some of the same answers as the BASS V LEGS.
Question of the day • How do plants move food and nutrients throughout the whole plant?
Veins • Pinnate • Parallel • Palmate
Smooth Leaf Edges Toothed / serrated
Leaf Differences • Look at this picture. Is it one leaf or more than one?
Simple One petiole and one blade Types of Leaves
Types of Leaves • Pinnately compound • Double pinnately compound • Palmately compound
Lobed/Unlobed Lobed Unlobed
Alternate • One leaf at each node Around or Beside
Opposite • Two leaves at each node
Whorled • More than two leaves which come out of each node
