Students were tasked with starting a detective diary by collecting leaves from trees in their schoolyard and researching what the leaves or fruit are used for. They had two weeks to find leaves and information, with most students starting their first herbarium. The trees identified in their schoolyard included chestnut, birch, and Gleditsia trees, with the blossom of Gleditsia being used to treat coughs.
