Rooster's Field Trip

Kids listening about the fishes
Looking at all the little fish. The bottom of these are suppose to be white.

Hiking to the Riparian Zone


I've never been here to these little falls. It was a beautiful walk.


Today the first graders went to a field trip to the fish hatchery (they only raise Rainbow Trout here) then off to a natural wildlife area known as the Riparian Zone. The kids have been studying different home, and with this experience helped them to understand what they have been reading about at school. Our group went to the fish hatchery first went inside and got to see every stage from egg to grown up. She informed us that it only takes 9 months for the trout to go from the egg to 2 foot long. WOW Next we had lunch. Finally a hike down the hill to walk thru the forest. All in all a great day.
