Underground Water

Yesterday my class and I watched a mystery Doug video. We learned that you don’t always need rain or a hose to make a pond or a pool. There was already water underground. We learned that all the rain was coming through the grass and just stayed underground for a while. The water seeks through the grass and if you dig deep enough you could find the water. This was really cool for me because I always knew that sometimes the ground is wet when you dig but I never knew that there was that much. I always thought that you would need a sprinkler or a hose to make something like a pond. But hopefully I just taught you a whole new thing!

Our Trip To NYC!

I had a lot of fun looking at the Statue of Liberty. My class and I went on the Staten island ferry. We saw the Statue of Liberty🗽, Staten island and Ellis island. We went to South Street seaport. I had a lot of fun looking at everything. This is gonna help me a lot with my research project. New York City is really different from the last time I saw it. We saw really big buildings. I learned a lot more new information. thank you Mr. Casal for teaching me a lot more things and pointing out everything and giving me good facts. I had so much fun and learned so much!
