Our fieldtrip to the water treatment plant.

My favorite part was when we saw all the bad water drain out of the filter it looked like a flood. I was surprised when I saw how many pipes and filters the water had to go in or through. My least favorite part was the smell of waste at the waste water treatment it smelt horrid I felt like my eyes were going to pop out and my nose was going to fall off, and when we saw the scraper scrape all the waste off the screen. I learned that water goes through a lot of things and there is no new water. It was pretty cool seeing the bacteria up close to 400 times zoomed in that was really cool except knowing that that used to crawl in the water we drink ew. So if you ever want to know where we get new water well we don’t.   

hi world i am going to tell you about my water field trip.

Te part that suprised me was the fact of how stinky it was at the waste water treatment plant.

The new thing i learned was about the scum scraper and how slippery the scum is .

My fav part was how i got to be a maniger in the modle of the treatmant plant and got to fire Alex cuase he put to much chlorine in the water.  Bye=http://=http://

Our class went to the water treatment plant and the waste water treatment plant. The waste water smelled terrible, as assumed. We learned that the process starts with glaciers and rain water. I found it quite odd that we add chlorine to the water we drink. My question is how many days does it take to complete this process? I learned that we really most conserve our water! I was very surprised that 10,000,000 gallons of water are used in businesses in our city each day, and how many steps of cleaning there are till the water comes to your sink. The worst part was the hideous smell! The best was probably watching the water rise in thein the giant bin at the water treatment plant. I was really shocked that the bus broke down. It was the best bus I had ever seen in my life! It was acually a tourish bus!

Love, Bex

my favorite part was the furnace burning at 1500 degrees it was really hot in the room i was sweating.

my least faveorite part was the smell it was afwlul  i mean who wants to smell that every day.

the thing that i learned was that  it smealt really bad i never new that it was gonna smell that bad it would make you gag.

but it was pretty awsome so i would give it a 7 out of 10

We went to the Waste Water Treatment Plant. IT STUNK REALLY BADLY! Our guide's were Ms. Drizzle and Sprinkle. We saw what water look's like when it's done going through pipe's. EWWWWW! It was SO gross! We also saw how they made this type of fuel. They BURN waste in a big oven like thing. IT SMELT THE WORST OUT OF THE WHOLE ENTIRE TRIP! We even saw crow's DRINKING the dirty water that wasn't cleaned yet!

For our field trip we went to the wast water treatment plant. The thing that surprised me most was that the people that work there have to burn manure from the toilet pipes.That surprised me because I thought that they did some vu-do magic on it and bing bang boom It was clean water! 

I learned that the slugg goes into a big, big pot, that looks like a fountian,to be stired slowly. I didn't know that slugg had anything to do with the water cycle. The manure there smelled

so bad I could throw up I wonted to! 

guess what the other day our class went on a field trip to the water treatment plant it was really cool & stinky & we go on a really cool bus with tvs & the bus broke down & we got to play games tell the other bus came

Hi peoples! Guess where i have been wesday the 23???????? At a water place! But, i just have to glowt on the bus. A totaly awsome Shuttle bus. With,... a built in bathroom with a window for only for the ones inside, On the second one an arm rest in the middle beacuse they were two person seats, optaioal outder armrests, recliners, tvs, and much much more=http://!!!! My clss wodre tye-dye that day.I met Sprinkle and Ms. Drizzle, Not Frizzle. They are related.  Let me say Sprinkle's theme song: I'm Sprinkle, the water drop, i'm always moving, i never stop. (she said where we where going) Our first stop was the lake. We brought our water booklets. We had to draw what we saw.  It was dogs of leash time. I drew dogs. :) There was also a tactor spewing seeds ebvery where. I drew that and the dust storm it was making. I bet i drew for dust than there was. :) I drew a bunch of other things. I drew a blue thing I saw across the lake. But, We used plain old pencils. So it didn't look the same. Then we went to a screen house neer lake Whatcom. I was sad we went past Lafeen's daughtnut shop. :( But i had a good lunch. :) I'm going right to the good part.  THE FILTER GALLERY. AS room of six filters. 2 sides. All the ones on the right off but the top right one. All the ones on the left were on. We watched the left top one, The filter is split in 4 secstions. Bottom left and right, top left and right, and the middle. The water was at the top bar. Then it slowley became less water. It looked like there was that wet cat fodd in it! The same shade of color too! ewe! Then on the top and bottom left, to things that looked liek octopus arms came out and started spining on the bottom. it spun the scum on the top all around. then, I think the spinning stoped, AndRose and rose again to the top bar, it bubbled and made loud noises, Ms. Drizzle counted to three, Then the top and bottom right parts had water flooding our of some holes to the middle! After that, when we we leaving, after the pouring water stoped intop the middle, the arms in the other half started moving! Then we did a game filter thigey, and went to the waste water treatment plant ater lunch. The worst part was every one freaked out of the smell. The smell didn't botehr my nose, but my chest. After i got a wif of the smell, that was bad, then fine! My favourite part was, going to these parts moving the big stuff the toilet paper out of it.  There was a colletion of toys around a pole! Like play dough molds, and Jazmin the disney Princess, and much more. That was my fav part! We also saw a really deep hole that ick water was in! I didn't know how deep it was until I saw an empty one! I htought it was only has deep as the wall on the oit side! Then the bus broke down and we had to wait for another one so we played chain up tag and Bob the wesel.

On 10-26-08,  i had an adventure. In a place i went many times, But found new spots there. It was a park. I went there with my sister threw out secret passage. But i can't tell you where it is. TOP SECRET! Any way, my sister brought her beanie baby. It was a duck. It was one of those new beanie baby 2.0s. We have a bunch of those. That was the one she got the day before. We went to the park and where all alone. My sister went straight to playing and i stoped. I remembered my mom had wanted something from the tree. Long story, but i found aa sopt on one of the Oak tress that had some in a low spot. Or the lowest it got. I got a large stick and wacked it a few times. Then i got 2 nice big ones. Then i followed my sister. I also ate bunchs of black berries.So many things had changed there. A tree had fallen at one of the passages. And part of the golf net rope and riped much and was dangling. I took that large stick with me. I went to the passage where the tree had finaly fallen. it had been pretty choped up my beavers and had a beaver not chewy net around it. I passed the tree and hung above the creek. swishing the stick in the lush crystal clear water. It makes my so thirsy right now. And it made such a wonderful sound in the water. Then i let my stick go in the lush water. The end!

ON THE WATERSHED FILD TRIP WE WENT ON WE GOT TO SEE A LOT OF THINGS. LIKE MY FAVORITE THING WAS WE GOT TO SEE THEM SET POOP ON FIRE. BUT THE WORSED THING IS THE SMELL. THE SMELL WAS SO BAD IT SMELLED LIKE ROTEN EGGS. THE BUS WAS SO COOL BECAUSE THERE WAS A BATHROOM IN IT AND THERE WERE TV'S IN IT. I HAVE TO SAY THAT THE BUS WAS SOOOOOOO COOOOL. WHEN WE WERE GETING ON THE BUS TO GO BACK TO SCHOOL THE BUS BROKE DOWN SO WE GOT TO PLAY GAMES IN A BIG FILD!!! THAT WAS SOOOOO FUN!!! BUT THE SMELL... NOT REALLY

I think that the water tretment was very fun!Ms.sprinkle and msdrizzle was very. i would mor like it if it was not that stinky!i fell bade for the fourth graders next year.The thing I really liked was the bus it had t.vs in it and  really cionfertable chairs and they evan had a bathroom in it like WOW i wish that was the reguler bus that i ride every day! I also liked when the bus broke down and we got to play those really fun games. The thing that i hated was how we had to go to the wast water tretmant. that place did not smell good. the first time i smelt it my eyes got all watery and i threw up in my mouth! but my favorite favorite favorite part is that we get two jym classes on friday!!!

Dear pofessor mcgonagall

I had a wonderful time on the fieldtrip in which I learned so many new things.  In this letter I am going to name a few things that I have learned.

First let me start of by the water treatment plant.  I did not know that there are so many steps they have to take to clean the water.  New words like floc, chemicals, impurities, backwash and filter are just a few of the new words that I have learned.

Then we went to the waste water treatment plant.  I never thought that I will go to a place like this in my life and to find it interesting as well.  They need to remove harmful solids from the water and then put the water thru several treatments before it is discharged into the Bay.  I don’t mind learning of all the processes but one thing I disliked the most is smell.

Learning things on a field trip are always fun but a day out on a field trip is not complete without a delicious lunch.

secerely,

brian

i did not go to the water shed field trip.

Today my class and I went to the Water Teatment Plant on a field trip. What surprised me so much was that I saw the guy from the movie, how bad the place smelled and how much water they had a dog park. Something that I learned was that they had 6 huge squares that they put water in. My favorite part was when I saw the duck from the movie and when Ronaldinho and I kicked Shadowking and Max's seats on the bus. I hope you read my blog.

On October 22, 2008 me and my class went to go to the water treatment plant. On the way there we were on a airport shuttle. The thing that suprised me was the things that harms all the watershed: animal poop, moters, oils, gas spills, litter ,ect. My new learing is how to take care of my watershed. My favorite prat was when we got to go on the buses and sing, and play the the games at the end of the day, and got to go to the water treatment plant and got to see how the water gets clean. My last favoite part was I got to see Drizzle and sprinkle. The worst part was we had to smell a gross smell    . i also liked it when we got to see people poop on fire. We also got to know what different color pipes carry different things. For example, the dark blue means that it has the clean water, the light blue carries almost clean water, the biege color means the water in it is dirty.
