On Wednesday we went to the Presa Taveras. This is a dam with a lake. We investigated the water, the plants and the animals around the lake. We described the lake using nouns and adjectives. We learned about what contaminates a lake and how we can prevent contamination.
On Thursday we went to La Posa. This is the river near our school. We investigated the same things as the lake. We also wrote an acrostic poem about the river and picked up LOTS of trash. 
On Friday we went to JUCUM (Youth With A Mission base) to investigate the pond they have there. We investigated the same things as the lake and river, as well as wrote an acrostic poem about it. We compared all three bodies of water, examining the similarities and differences. Then as a reward for all our hard work, we got to swim and play in the pool that JUCUM has on the base.
