Sapling

Days are getting longer and green
shoots are pushing through the soil
- a sure sign spring is on its way!

Investigate the first signs of spring
and create a newspaper telling
everyone the news :O) 

 

Face facts

Before journalists can write a story they need to collect evidence and facts.

Go exploring with this spotter sheet to track down the very first signs of spring near you.

How much evidence can you find?

"A picture is worth a thousand words"

Photographs can tell people a lot of information and can also make your article look great :O)

Take your camera along on your fact-hunting assignment and take pictures of the early spring signs you find.
