Welcome to the St. Mary's School 7th grade Tree
Identification Site. This project was made possible through a grant written by
Dr. Bob Williams (SIU) and Dr. Marilyn Lisowski (EIU) called TIE-Ins (Technology,
Inquiry, Environment - Investigation and Nature in Science). Our teacher,
Mrs. Zvonar, received a digital camera and photo
editing software. Our technology teacher, Mrs. Hartrich helped us to learn how
to use the software and how to make a web site. Wendy Wilson let us use the
trees on her property and taught us about trees. She also checked our
identifications.
We collected leaf and seed samples, took the pictures and
edited them, identified our trees, wrote our descriptions and edited them,
learned how to use html, and posted our project on the web. We also made
laminated tree cards with our leaves and seeds for other students in our school
to use to help them to identify trees.
Our project will become part of the
