Activity 1: What’s a Forest to You?
Forests provide us with wood, food, rubber, medicines, paper, and many other products. They also contribute to our recreational, aesthetic, and spiritual needs. Forests help purify water, prevent erosion, and modify climate. In this activity, students will have an opportunity to explore the role that forests play in their lives and to compare their thoughts to those of their classmates, friends, and family members.
