How do trees change across the seasons?

In this activity from Oak National Academy, children observe the changes that occur to trees during different seasons. Learners then analyse the annual calendar and compare events to the seasons. They can then look at the weather that can be seen in each season and how this may affect our calendar events. Lastly, they read about a female scientist.
