Friday Field trips part 1



Field trips are the best! Last week we went out to Kennecott Copper Mine for a field trip- We learned all about copper, and about the biggest open pit mine- one that can be seen from outer space. It was fascinating to watch and learn about-

A view from the top- a picture just doesn't do it justice - it's HUGE

exploring different minerals through microscopes- the visitor's center is way cool
We had a great time!
