The goal of this activity is to introduce students to biological field notebooks and how they are used by scientists during field work. Specifically, students will learn what a botanist collecting plants in the field will record in their notebook, and how this information is then used to produce a formal herbarium specimen with detailed record label. This activity will prepare students for collecting their own herbarium specimens with regard to the types of data they need to record.
