by Nina Hipps
This lesson is in collaboration with the National Park Service and contains additional activities from the Jr. Ranger program. Using the NPS brochure guide/map and Plantnet app, students will identify plant species and where they are located. They will also graph diversity of plants along the trail. Finally, students will use artifacts chosen/identified at visitor's center to construct the 'story' of the artifacts.
