Strawberry vs. Moss
We were talking about our study and noticed that the strawberries and moss were green and no other plants were. We drew a picture of moss and strawberry plants and called it strawberry vs. moss. We drew them to learn more about them.
Strawberry Questions
1.
How do they survive in winter?
2.
Why does it have a giant root?
3.
Why does it have a shell (around the root?)
Moss Questions
1.
How fuzzy can it get?
2.
How does moss keep you warm?
3.
Why does it have all that fuzz? Does it help it keep insulated?

Field Report, February 9th (Behind the School)
On February 9th, the 3-5th went behind the school for a field trip, and on the way back we had to notice something that we didn’t on the way there. When we got back we wrote what we noticed in our journals. This is what we wrote:
On the way back from the site I noticed that there were buds on most of the willows that I saw. Also I saw cotton wood buds that looked like they were about to open. Hopefully that means spring is coming. (Tasha)
On the way back we saw a moose browsing on small willow trees, and a moose bed. (Marshall)
I noticed that there were a lot of moose tracks and other stuff like there were no pine needles on the bottom of the pine trees. (Jacob)
I saw a seed pod that had seeds really close to it and I also saw willow buds. What did you see? (Sammy)
I noticed a bunch of the trees were laying on the ground, they looked lazy. The snow was too heavy for most of the alders so they were touching the ground. That was interesting to me. (Faith)
I noticed a seed pod and it wasn’t opened yet. It was an easy guarantee that spring is coming. (Desire)
I noticed where the moose hang out. It has a big tree and moose go to the bathroom there. (Scherion)
I saw a chocolate Lilly seed that Jacob pointed out to some people and some willow nipped off the tree. (Sesylia)
I saw that the willow buds were opening. (Ula)
