  1. For this trip at first I thought we were going to do research for our science fair projects. I was incorrect. We were gaining knowledge on our curiculum on geology. The topics were about rocks, how the Earth formed, Earths atmosphere, and green house gasses.

  2. This trip was fun. Even though we spent most of the time writing we still had fun walking around. The other schools took up some of the places that we went but we eventually got to write down the stuff we needed.

  3. This trip was exciting.However, we id not get enough time to accomplish parts of the work we were there for. Timing was a huge disadvantage for the information attained on this trip. I wish we can go back and learn more.

  5. I thought during this trip we had a little time left to complete the given sheet. At least at the trip, we got to walk around and touch the rocks too. At the end of the trip, my risk was hurting a lot because of all the writing we had to do. Other than that, I thought the trip was very educational on rocks.

  6. During this trip, I learned a lot about rocks and minerals because it is aligned with our curciculum. However, the timing was little to complete the given work. I wish we could go back there another time.

  7. The trip was great! It was fun walking around. The exhibit that we saw was aligned with our curiculum. We saw lots of information on rocks and minerals, weather such as earthquakes and volcanoes. We spent very little time there, but we learned alot and we have some backround info for our topic in our curiculum.

  10. I thought that this trip was very fun. Although i did thought that that we would do more than just walk and take notes. I gained a lot of knowledge about how the earth was formed and how the rocks age is determined. The trip was based on geology and was a good experience.
