P4/5 Pond Dipping (John Muir Award)

Today we went pond dipping at the forest we recognised some of the pond creatures such as worms and tadpoles but we also found what looked like little squid.  We will research this further and find out what these were.  We identified some of the plants also e.g. bulrushes.

We also did some litter picking which weighed in at 1kg and so we’ve decided to create posters to educate people not to drop litter as a lot of the litter we picked up was cans. plastic bottles and crisp packets which don’t decompose for hundreds of years.
