Help children explore the fascinating world of trees with this engaging science resource pack!

This set of ready-to-use lesson starters and worksheets supports pupils in learning about the structure of trees (parts of a tree) and understanding the difference between coniferous and deciduous trees. Designed for KS1 and early KS2, these activities encourage discussion, observation, and early scientific writing.

Children will have opportunities to talk with a partner or share ideas as a class, helping them develop vocabulary and confidence before moving into independent writing tasks. The lesson starters include example writing and helpful prompts to guide pupils as they organise their ideas.

The pack also introduces pupils to tree identification, with a focused activity on recognising and describing an oak tree. A supportive word bank/word mat and worksheet help children record their observations and use appropriate scientific vocabulary.

Perfect for science lessons, nature studies, outdoor learning, forest school activities, or plant topic units.

Lesson Starter: Structure of a Tree – Parts of a Tree (PDF)

Lesson Starter: Types of Trees – Coniferous vs Deciduous (PDF)

Word Bank / Word Mat for Tree Vocabulary
