Welcome to the Pine Barrens! Red Oak Tree Pitch Pine Tree Objectives • Introduce the Pine Barrens of NJ. • Understand two trees of the Pine Barrens. • Explore the bark, seeds, and leaves of the pitch pine and red oak. • Identify characteristics of the bark, seeds and leaves. • Distinguish between these two tree species. • Record visual, verbal, or tactile observations. Project Design STEM/Science Content Localized Content We identify Tree Species by their characteristics, such as leaves, seeds and bark.
