Great graphic organizer on theme; however, it seems to me that the trunk and limbs (maybe even the roots) should be where the students record their text evidence because the trunk/limbs and roots support the leaves not the other way around. Just want the analogy to be more consistent/logical. This pin is from Lovin Lit: Interactive Notebook Linky Party ~ Five for Friday!
