My school and I were visiting the woods but this time we took the cycle path. We took the cycle path because we didn’t want to go in single file down the path. We were going to the chestnut tree. When we got there we couldn’t get the conkers because we couldn’t reach them.
When we arrived at the woods Mrs. Lennie told us to get in groups. I was with Bruce, William and Blair. We were given a nice piece of paper and we were to find a hideout. We were learning about photosynthesis. Eventually we found our hideout so then we started to read the bit of paper “What do plants need?” Photosynthesis is where a tree needs sunlight, water and carbon dioxide to make its own food. Chlorophyll is a green chemical that makes the leaves green with energy running through it. Human beings need oxygen but we don’t need carbon dioxide. We need oxygen but trees don’t need oxygen and we don’t need carbon dioxide but trees do. Humans and trees make a good partnership to keep each other alive.
Then once we had learned about everything all the groups needed to meet up so then we started a quiz. There were A,B,C signs on the trees so Mrs. Lennie shouted out an answer and we would either go to A,B,or C. Me, Bruce, William and Blair got about one wrong at the end. Meanwhile at the end when we were walking back not all of us we caught up with the wee ones. They left fifteen minutes before us. After a while we were back at school. We made it back in time and luckily the parents didn’t go mad!
