In the beginning, we did a worksheet which asked us what we thought was going to be at Makiki Stream. Then we hiked up to Makiki Stream. We climbed down a slippery ladder which was slightly rusted. First, we went net fishing and caught swordtails, shrimp and guppies. It was hard to stand because the rocks were very slippery. We noticed the stream was muddy and had a lot of trash and that it was higher than usual while we were fishing. The murkiness of the water may have been caused by the trash and rain.
So after fishing, we had a competition between girls and boys to clean all the trash up. When we got back, we finished a worksheet that asked us what we knew was at Makiki Stream like fish, rocks, water, plants, insects, bugs, and (sadly) trash. Makiki Stream was a very marvelous field trip!
