The leaves are just starting to change and fall around us, so this is the perfect time to start doing science activities with them! I actually learned a lot while putting together this science packet. I’m not a botanist, but I did read and research when I was putting these activities together. Each activity explains the science behind it, which I think is important!
In this packet, there are activities on the following science concepts:
- Life processes
- Living things
- Botany
- Transpiration
- Photosynthesis
The main science concept in this packet is investigating living things. There are activities that spend time observing and recording results. One of the activities that I loved is showing how leaves “drink” water. My kids really loved that activity!
Here are the 10 activities in this packet:
- Leaf Life Cycle (with a printable)
- Parts of a Leaf (with a printable)
- Comparing Leaves
- Crunchy Leaves (with a printable journal)
- Leaf Hunt (with a printable)
- How Leaves Change Colors
- How Leaves “Breathe”
- How Leaves “Drink” (with a printable observation sheet)
- How Leaves Get Water
- What Happens to Leftover Leaves (with a printable)

I purchased the Apple science activity . Do I download it? I didn’t get an email telling me I could now download.
Sent you an email, Lynn. 🙂 Yes, an email with a download code will be sent to you.
Thanks for allowing me to print activities for my students with disabilities. They’ve enjoyed participating in various activities.
