Our thoughts on the project:
We really enjoyed this project because we all got to
work together and be outside. It gives us a break at the
end of the day and gives us a chance to have fun with
schoolwork.
Carrington: My favorite part was getting to be outside
with 2 of my best friends but still get our work done.
Dajour: My favorite part was getting to go outside and
do something other than bookwork while learning
about trees.
Josh: My favorite part was all 3 of us taking pictures
together with our tree.
