What Is Broadmoor

            

Broadmoor is a wildlife sanctuary where everything that lives there lives there

on their own will. Broadmoor is located in Natick. Natick(and Broadmoor)

have beautiful trees, grass, and flowers! Broadmoor is a great place for everyone who likes or  loves nature, hiking, and field trips.

                          

Why We Went There

  We went to broadmoor because we wanted to learn more about plants. Broadmoor is a very science like place. that is the reason we went there - to learn about everything plant related.

                                          Pollination

Pollination is an very important part of a plant's life . Pollination is when when the pollinator such as a bee comes to the flower hungry for nectar the bee doesn't know  he's getting pollen all over him he flies to another flower some of the pollen on him gets stuck to the sticky stigma then it goes down the style into the ovary that helps it make the eggs called ovules than the ovary swells and turns into a fruit. Phat is the process of pollination, (also another reason we went there).

                                                      Plant adaptations

A plant adaptations is how different kinds of plant survive in different kinds of habitats: marsh,meadow and forest.

              

                  Seed Dispersal

Seed dispersal is when seeds reproduce and fly off into the world to its new home in many different ways.

These were the things we learned on our Broadmoor field trip.

            

Here are some experiments we did before we went to Broadmoor....                                  

           

Before we went to broadmoor we planted beans and pea seeds then we tried to see if our plants could stay alive in different conditions. We made a hypothesis also known as a scientific guess.

                                              Plants We Saw

We saw lots of types of leaves. We saw compound leaves, we saw regular leaves. We also saw lots of trees like  pine trees My favorite was the oak tree. We also saw lots of plants. Some of our class favorites  were duckweed and dandelions.     but My favorite type of plant I saw was milk weed! Because we got to disperse its seeds!!!That means help it reproduce. which  means help its baby plants grow far away.

                                        Animals We Saw

The favorite things we saw at broadmoor were animals. We also saw a lot of animals.  Some of the things I saw were squirrels and chipmunks and some birds.we  saw were ducks and a heran.
