Grant, Colin and Lesley decided to
meet in the Sugar Bush after school.
Eric saw that his friends were home
from school and heading for the Sugar Bush, so he decided to
join them.
The leaves on the trees in the Sugar
Bush were beginning to change colour.
Some leaves were  , some were  and others were  .
The leaves looked beautiful in the bright sunlight.
Lesley suggested that they pick some of the prettiest leaves
they could find.
They found some leaves on the trees, while others had fallen
off and lay on the ground.
Grant noticed that the leaves had
different shapes and colours.
He had a brilliant maple leaf  , with 3 large points.
Colin had picked a bright birch
leaf  , which only had one point.
Eric's leaf was from an oak tree  and
it had many points.
They played games with the leaves, throwing them in the air,
and letting them rain down on top of each other.
They made piles of leaves and jumped on top of them.
Just then, their Mothers called them to come in for supper.
They did not want their fun to stop, so they each collected a
few leaves to take home.
What else could they do with all those
leaves?
