Types Of Trees!!

We have been learning about trees as a part of our concept, ecosystems. 

So, for writing we wrote about different types of trees! Check out Cody's awesome explanation about evergreen and deciduous trees!

Types of trees!!

Evergreen Trees!

Evergreen trees are a type of tree that always have leaves. They are big trees with green needles all over them. Old evergreen trees may loose some of their leaves in the winter due to falling branches. 

Evergreen trees are a good source of fire wood because they are big and sometimes have pine cones growing all over them. Evergreen trees can grow up to 150 feet tall, which can save us money because they produce up to 45m of shade. Evergreen trees are homes for lots of animals such as bids, beetles, bees, owls and many more. They can also produce tree sap which is said to be soothing medication for burns and sores. These trees are also known to be good Christmas trees and can be found in both warm and cold conditions. As well as being able to produce medication evergreen trees can also smell very nice. To some people it's a soothing fragrance.

Deciduous trees!

Deciduous trees are a type of tree that loose their leaves. These trees can be found in NZ, North America, South America, Asia, Europe, Texas, Australia, Florida and Minnesota. 

Deciduous trees loose their leaves in autumn, winter and dry seasons. In the summer they give up to 30m of shade. These trees can help you save money in the summer, so instead of having air conditioning you could cool your house down with a deciduous tree in your front/back yard! Deciduous trees produce tree sap which has lots and lots of vitamin c in it. 

My favourite tree is the evergreen tree because it doesn't  make a big mess in your front/back yard!
