Herbariums have been used by scientists to keep catalogs of plants for hundreds of years. This project introduces students to the process of creating a herbarium (a collection of dried plants). Students will use their collections to create their own field guide for plants in the local area. Students will learn how to identify plant and learn about how classification systems are derived for plants.
