 Temperate forests are often called deciduous
forests.
 In a temperate forest, most of the trees lose
their leaves in the winter.
 During the fall, when the weather gets cooler,
the trees begin to shut down.
 Their leaves turn beautiful shades of colors.
 Come winter time, the leaves fall off of the
trees.
