Most xylem tubes begin in the roots and end in the leaves.

Most phloem tubes start in the leaves and end in the roots.

Find out about the place where the xylem ends and the phloem begins, the leaf.

Sorting LeavesSorting LeavesLook closely at each leafSort into those that show evidence

of xylem and phloem and those that don’t.

How many of your leaves have veins?

Are the veins all the same size?Do the veins branch?Sort your leaves in a new way.

ClassificationClassificationScientists organize, or classify, things

so they can think about them more efficientlyA group of things that go together based

on a property or behavior is a class.5th graders form a class based on age. 4th

graders are a different class, etc… In schools we classify students by age.

Geology – classify crystals by shapes and angles of surfaces. Classify sand by particle size.

Several large veins extending from the place where the leaf stem attaches to the leaf.

Think of the palm of your hand and your fingers as the main veins.

PinnatePinnate One large vein

extending the length of the leaf with smaller veins branching off.

Pinna means feather, so a pinnate leaf resembles a feather

ParallelParallel

Many small veins running the length of the leaf.

Long, narrow leaves, like blades of grass, tend to have parallel veins.
