Williams+2-3


 * Mrs. Williams second/third grade class walked the .65 miles to Beaconsfield Canyon on October 22. Here are some or our questions after going on the hike up to the Canyon.**

• Why wasn't there any water in the fall? • Why did the waterfall have water in it when it hadn't rained? • Why does bay laurel smell bad? • How do leaves change colors in the fall? • What happens when people build houses on the creek? • Do some plants need more water than others? • Where does water come from? • What will it look like in Beaconsfield next time? • What happens to your body if you get stung by stinging nettle? • What does Italian thistle do to you? • Why were there a lot of trees? • Why was it so windy? • Will the plants grow taller? • Why didn't we see Pacific Madrone? • What was the name of the fungus we saw? • What happens when poison oak dies? • Why didn't we see any poison oak?


 * Our next field trip will be to the Botanic Garden in Tilden Park to learn about Native American uses of plants. **
