Today we went to The Narrows in Beavercreek. We first saw plant and animals on a trail, and we we able to get a closer look through binoculars. Then we learned about the life in The Little Miami River. We also took the temperature and the pH of the water to see if it was acidic or basic. Like we suspected, the water was neutral if not their would probably not be as much wild life. At the end of the trip, we visited The Nature Center and got to pet a Black Rat Snake. This trip focused on the importance of the river. The river is important because it contains all of the animals and it all rivers connect so it effects the ecosystem.
After are trip we preformed our nature show scrip, the point of this activity was to mimic a nature show here is our scrip:
Age Group: 14- Adult
Animal: Velociraptor
Sidney (Narrator 1): Hello, and welcome to the Dino Show! The dinosaur we will be dealing with today is……… the Velociraptor!!
*Shows Velociraptor*
Shariah: The Velociraptor is a carnivore type dinosaur that lived during the later Cretaceous Period, approx. 75 to 71 million years ago.
Sidney: That’s right! Velociraptors are approx. 7 ft tall and 180 lbs, even though they were shown to be larger in the Jurassic Park movies. They also have three strongly curved claws! These claws are used to tear flesh apart or restrain their victims.
Shariah: Here is an unsuspecting victim we told should come for a Jurassic World commercial since the movie’s coming out soon. She thinks she is only acting, but unfortunately, there may be a turn of events for her.
*Maryam walks in*
Maryam: Oh look! A dinosaur! It looks so real!
Shariah: Well it may be, it might not be. Why don’t you pet it and find out?
Maryam: Wow I can pet it?!?!?!?!? Sweet!!!!!
*Maryam walks up to the Velociraptor, wondering if it’s real or not. She reaches it out and tries to pet her……..*
*Whatever Alese decides to do*
*Shariah and Sidney stare out the incident with interest and slight disgust.*
Sidney: Well….that’s it for today’s episode of the Dino Show! We hoped you enjoyed it!
*Shariah and Sidney wave to the camera while Alese continues eating Maryam in the background*
