YEAR 3 went to the Cotswold Water Park and we had a look at some minibeasts.
We were split into groups and each group had a different coloured hoop.
We each had to put down the hoop somewhere in the grass.
We tried to find as many minibeasts as we could in the hoop.
We did grass sweeping where we had a net and we waved it on top of the long grass and we found some minibeasts in the net.
In the woods there were different coloured flags for the different hoops and by each flag there were some logs.
We looked under the logs to find minibeasts.
Each group had a tray with some water in.
We took it in turns to take the net and dip it into the pond to find water creatures. We called this pond dipping.
I really enjoyed our trip. My favourite part was pond dipping.
