My Trip To Cave Of The Mounds

Lighting Rock at Cave of the Mounds

 Today I wanted to tell you about one of my field trips to Cave of the Mounds. It was when I was in third grade in Fall 08. We went there because we were learning about rocks and minerals while we were doing that unit we got to look at our rocks up close with a microscope. It was fun, cool, and interesting. We also got to look at our classmates rocks with our microscopes. First thing we did at The Cave Of The Mounds was taking a tour of the area. When we were taking a tour of the area we actually were over the cave! My favorite part was when we over the cave. Then we took a tour of the cave – it was amazing, but we couldn’t touch any thing only the things they said we could. But it was still cool. After we took the tour around the cave we went sieving rocks  in water. I got cool rocks there.

My favorite rock was called Pyrite.                                                              

Sieving

Surely, I bet you should try to go to cave of the mounds. 

So I hope you like my post and Thanks for stopping by
