Trip to Sandy Creek

When we got to Sandy Creek first we went inside to look into microscopes. We were all split up into groups. One group put leaves or something under the microscope and looked at it. Another group was doing cause and effect like if the cause of too much candy and the effect is bad teeth. Then we looked into more microscope. we looked at different kinds of bacteria in the microscope and the draw it.

Soon it was time for our hike. On our hike we saw a decaying log. I stepped on it and it broke it into two. Ms.Wilcox spotted a deer but we didn't see it. We saw microorganisms. There were different color mushrooms. When we got to the pond we saw little frogs hopping. We tried catching them but they were camouflaged. We also saw turtles. Then we saw the brick factory that used to be there. We could saw lots of bricks that came from the brick factory. Then it was time to head back.

  2. There were a couple of posts about the different colored mushrooms. Did you learn what makes them so different? I'm curious :-).
