Corps of Discovery Field Trip

I was in the car. One hour later, we were there. Everyone wanted hot cocoa, but I didn’t. Then the kids were done.

We learned about a black bear, an otter, a hawk, a bard owl, and a weird bear. Then we were practicing to have a phone. Then we know how you can take a picture that is interesting.

Then we climbed a mountain that was steep, so steep that I had to grab trees to pull myself up so I didn’t slip. When we got to the top, we were looking for trash and seeds and other plants. When we were done, we did a bark rubbing and looked at plants. We found moss, a mushroom, and more bark.

Then we saw Mr. Huebner take the parts out of the squirrel before he cooked the squirrel meat. Then we ate lunch. I didn’t want to eat the squirrel, bobcat, or bear, so I ate my sandwich instead.

Then we made sculptures. We made a teepee. Then we went in the river and found a few things like a mini tiny lobster and a speed runner. We found a baby scorpion creature. They are called macroinvertebrates.

Then after that, we went to worship God at the falls. I painted and played a flute.

When we came back, we went home. It was such an exciting day to explore. I really want to climb that mountain again!

The Balloon

We were at morning meeting, when suddenly Miss Hellickson said there was a balloon landing  on the soccer field!  Everyone lined up and went outside and saw it.  We went to go look at it closely.  When the guy pushed the button, there was a boom!  Fire exploded into the balloon, and it made it fly.  We saw the balloon fly.  We all saw it fall down.
