Pond+Ecosystem+by+TM

Hello all Wiki viewers I am “shez dxpe1” and I go to the [|Amigos School]. I am a 6th grader and we have been going on a lot of field trips so that we could do our Wikis. And let people now how eco systems are. We have learned a lot about ecosystems before we came to make Wikis. We did projects on ecosystems and we have had a lot of fun learning about where different animals live. Our science teacher is very nice for taking us on all these field trips and teaching us about ecosystems and for our science teacher letting us make a Wiki.

I am doing this Wiki to show everyone how Black Nook’s Pond is. Black Nook’s Pond is also near [|Fresh Pond] My topic relates to the fieldtrip I went to because I am telling you how it looks, feels, smell etc. I hope you enjoy reading about Black Nook’s Pond and enjoy looking at all my photos I have on my page.

We went to the pond on an[|MBTA bus] and it didn’t take that long to get there. We went at about 11 am on 9/12/08. Black Nook’s Pond is very fun. There are a lot of producers like tress, bushes, duckweed and a lot more. The pond has different walkways to go through one has a little part of the pond and the other half has the rest of the pond. It was really nice because when you had to walk to the pond there were tress everywhere and there was a nice breeze. I guess there was another part but we couldn’t go because they were cutting down trees so it was blocked off. To gather all my information we walked around to find decomposers, consumers and producers.

At the pond when we were looking for biotic stuff we found a lot of cool stuff. The energy pyramid goes like this: decomposers, producers, primary consumers, secondary consumers and last but not least the tertiary consumers. There were three producers that we found they are elodea, algae and duckweed. There were three consumers we found they were fish, frogs and bugs. And three decomposers we found were worms, fungi and mushrooms. Take a look at my pyramid! It was a lot of fun finding biotic things. We found out that the turbidity was “01” clear. The water temp was 62 ºF. The air temp was 63 ºF. It was cloudy out but still nice and there was no rain in the last 24 hours that we were there. The dissolved oxygen was “0.1”ppm. Ammonia was 0. The PH was 8. check out my food web!

So I hope that if anyone goes to Cambridge i hope that you go to Black Nook’s Pond or if you already live in Cambridge still go visit. When I was at the field trip I learned a lot about abiotic and biotic life. I also learned about the turbidity. And that when you are at a fieldtrip learning that you can still have a lot of fun. Well I hope you guys learned a lot about Black Nook Pond and I hope you enjoyed reading my Wiki.
