A Tree for All Seasons focuses solely on a maple tree and the physical changes it endures every year during all of the four seasons. The pictures are all real, and beautiful photographs from nature. The author also includes what other lifestyle changes occurs with other plants and animals during the seasons as well. Overall, this book is a beneficial piece for students to get a visual sense of what each season looks like. This book can be a model for a writing assignment on the four seasons. It can be great for students to either pick one season and write changes that occur in nature during that season, and include a drawing. Another approach can be having students draw images of all of the four seasons and write facts about each season along with it. This can leave room for students to be creative and gain knowledge about each of the four seasons.… (altro)
