The Matterhorn!
14692 Feet tall. Triangular shape formed by glaciers sliding down the mountain. Made of sedimentary rocks from the African plate. In the Alps between Switzerland and Italy.
After music class we took a hike up a "mountain". It was a beautiful day. We discussed different ways to get to the top of the mountain. We came up with walking, bikes, horses and cars. We made it to the top and kept going for a bit. We stopped for a small picnic and admired some pretty purple flower in bushes that were all around. The boys walked the whole way themselves... we only went maybe a mile total but it was mostly uphill. On the way back down i noticed a snake sunning. It scared us, but i realized it was just a gopher snake so we observed it for a few minutes and takes about their tongues. It darted away when it smelled someones dogs coming up the road.
Arai also noticed that their were small ditches where water has flowed and that they looked like small Grand Canyons.
When we got home our craft was a cable car. We strung them up and experimented with how cable cars worked. They make good necklaces too.
Today was a good day with our field trip.
