 * Me locito109 and the [|Amigos] 6th graders visited the [|Arboretum] forest in [|Boston] MA, on November 5th, 2009. It was such a cool experience looking at nature plus fresh air and a nice the long walk, and because of it I am making this Wiki. The forest is exactly what the Arboretum was, a nice walk and lots of trees. **=====

 * The bus ride to the Arboretum was really exiting because of the rush to learn. When we got there we immediately saw it was full of abiotic (non living things) like rocks of all different shapes and sizes, brown black and all in between. Also the wind was blowing at 50 degrees F.Also there was water going down like a small little, and most importantly the sun. Other abiotic things that were in the Arboretum were the gates, cars that passed by, and the buildings you could see, the definitions about the producers. I got all the information that I had on forest eco-system and also got info from my friend mz.spongeboblover . I used my hands a lot but did not use any instruments to find the abiotic things . **=====

 * We saw so many biotic things (living things) that lived in that ecosystem or just visiting it like us. I saw oak trees, pine trees, and lots of grass, lots of trees I cant even remember the names. The decomposer we saw were mushroom, and fungi on the trees. We also saw on or walk inside the forest some squirrels, dogs, ants, the frog, snake,and hawks and birds up in the sky. It was interesting to notice how the energy pyramid was in that ecosystem. There was tertiary consumer that had to be the human walking around and there dogs, the hawk and the snake. The secondary consumer was a frog. The primary consumers in the other hand were the squirrels and ants in the soil, the chipmunks two. The decomposers were the mushroom and the fungi on the trees, and the Sun! **

 * It was such a cool and interesting field trip to go to and it was so awsome it inspired me to make this wiki. The biotic things were so cool like the squirrels running up and down the trees. Also the dogs and the microscopic ants, the snake, the birds and hawk up in the sky and lets not forget the frogs. There was water running down like a river. The field trip was so peaceful and awesome; I hope u can get to go some day. **
