some kinds of trees that grow in these forests. For each type of forest,
give one or more examples of uses for the wood of its trees.
- Draw a picture to show the plant and
tree layers of a forest in your area. Label the area that does and draw a
picture of that forest.)
- Identify six forest trees common to
the area where you live. Tell how both wildlife and humans use them. (If you
don't live in a region that has forests, read about one type of forest and
name six of its trees and their uses.)
- Identify six forest plants (other
than trees) that are useful to wildlife. Tell which animals use them and for
