Description
Overview
Trees and Forests in Grade 6 Science (Alberta) uses 15 printable worksheets to help students describe plant structures, interpret ecosystem change, and connect evidence to conservation decisions 🌲.
This custom bundle supports a focused sequence of instruction, practice, and science assessment so learners can move from observations to clear explanations aligned to Alberta expectations.

Skills & Standards
Built for Alberta learning goals, this Trees and Forests unit connects crosscutting concepts (such as structure and function, systems and system models, and cause and effect) to disciplinary core ideas in life science, including plant structures and ecosystem relationships.
Students practice scientific modeling through labeled diagrams, food web representations, and scenario-based systems thinking, then use analytical reasoning to interpret patterns (for example, growth rings and disturbance regimes) and write evidence-based explanations grounded in observations from the worksheets.
Perfect For
- Teachers seeking structured instruction
- Sub plans
- Homework or review
- Intervention or centers
- Assessment preparation
How to Use
Plan the 15 worksheets across a multi-day pacing sequence (for example, 2–3 worksheets per week) by grouping plant structure and function, forest ecosystems, and human impacts into short instructional blocks, then using the assessment worksheets as checkpoints for exit tickets, small-group checks, or end-of-section reviews.
For centers, rotate students through diagram labeling, classification sorting, and food-web building; for homework or review, assign one targeted worksheet per concept (roots/water, stem transport, leaf functions, or growth rings) and ask students to include one sentence of evidence in their responses.
Closing
Use this Grade 6 Trees and Forests science custom unit bundle to streamline planning and support evidence-based learning across Alberta-aligned topics.
