Dear Pupils,
We will soon be going for another Science trip to the Raffles Museum. Since I don't make you keep a science journal, I would like you to take some time out to post a comment on this post with regards to the last science trip "Rainforest Walk".
Tell me if you enjoyed the outing and one interesting thing you learnt on the trip.
Adios,
Yew

I enjoyed the Rainforest walk . I learnt that there are four types of layers in the rainforest.They are the emergent layer , canopy layer , understorey layer and the forest floor .The emergent layer grows up to 80 metres . The canopy layer grows up to 3o metres. The understorey layer are the small tress waiting for chances to grow.The forest floor is warm and humid.

I enjoyed the Rainforest trip a lot. I learnt that there are different plant adaptations.They are the Buttress Roots,Cauliflory,climbers,drip-tips ,Epiphytes and shade-tolerant plants.The Buttress roots support the trees so it will not fall easily.The Cauliflory has flowers inside it.The climbers climb up the trees to get sunlight.The drip-tips prevent fungus from growing.The Epiphytes make their own food by photosynthesis and the shade-tolerant plants traps dead leaves to get nutrients.

Dear Loretta and SiangYing,
I am glad you enjoyed the trip as much as I do. From your comments, I can tell the two of you really learnt a lot from the trip. I am sure you have a much deeper understanding of the rainforest. Hopefully, like me you have learnt to appreciate the wonders of nature.
Love, yew
I feel asif that I have started to love forests.we saw dragonflies and many more!we heard loud cries in a certain part of the forest. the guide said that it is the sound of the cicada.By tay wei xiong.
It was quite boring...... the walk was so short. I like the guide but i think next time it should be longer...... Overall it was ok lah.I also learnt about monkeys..... hahahahaha! LOL...
I enjoyed the Rainforest walk . there are a lot of different animals and plants in the forest.the highest tree in the forest is about 80 metres . the fruits that we eat may be grown by some of the plants in the forest.i find the monkeys there are very cute altough they might steal other peoples food.:):):):):):):):)

i love the rainforest walk because inside i can learnlots of things and fun too.i learn that that in the rainforest we are not allow to bring plastic inside as there are monkey inside they will think that there are food inside so they will attack you.if we feed them food they will not find their own food and next time they may be extinct.

i enjoyed the walk very interesting though it was hot and humid. I learnt that Tampines is named after a tree.
I really enjoyed the Rainforest walk.I learnt that every little plant has their own special thing.Like the Buttress tree,it stands in a sort of way that doesn't make the tree fall easily.I also learnt that how much deforestation can bring harm to the living things living in the forest.
By Irene

i enjoyed the walk quite a lot even though it is quite tiring....
the walk has taught me quite alot of things.The drip-tips let the rain water drip immediately from the leaves to the floor and it prevents algae from growing.the bukit timah hill is 164metres high.

I enjoyed the rainforest walk and had learnt many things.There were four layers in the rainforest.The Buttress Roots support the tree so that the tree will not fall easily .Our guide also told us that the cicida will stop making sound once there was rain.

I enjoyed the Rainforest a lot.I should say that spending $12 is worth it although i went to the place before.When i went to the rainforest, i found out lots of plant which sometimes good to us,sometimes not good to us.I also learnt about the emergent layer,canopy layer,understorey layer and the forest floor.Next time when i went to the rainforest, i hope i can have the same guide, auntie Marlene to guide me and my family and tell us about the useful and unuseful plant again.

BY:TENG FONE
yes i definetly enjoy it very much.
i learnt that when a tree drop in the middle of a pathway they will take the tree up and put it at a side to allow organism to leave inside.After going these trip,i also learnt that we should be more careful at the natural reserve not to step on plant's root as they will feel the pain too!i too learnt,i learnt that are if a tree drop the tree beside it will also drop.Lastly,i learnt that we earn our food and air come indirectly from plant so lets us save plants from deforestation!
by :Tham wen yi
I really enjoyed the trip to Bukit Timah as i learnt a lot of things there such as some kinds of plants have twirling branches. I learnt that we should do our part to prevent deforestation as many animals will lose their home such as the birds even monkeys. We should save our earth!

I enjoyed the rainforest walk. we are not suppose to take any thing from the rainforest as it was protected by the law.Our guide told us that a plant that bear cherry wiil sweeten our mouth for hours when we eat it. I would like to try.The rainforest famous tree is the shorea plant.It belong to the emergent layer.yhe mango tree is belong to the canopy layer.There is a litter plant and it can grow 10m height and it belong to the understorey layer.the forest floor is just plant that is warm and humid to grow.

I enjoyed the Rainforest walk.I think it is a meaningful trip as I learnt that there are different Rainforest plant adaptions like the Buttress roots,Cauliflory,Climbers,Drip-tips,Epiphytes and the Shade-tolerant Plants.There are four types layers in the rainforest too.
They are the Emergent Layer,Canopy Layer,Understorey Layer and the Forest floor.Examples of the Emergent layer is shorea tree.Examples of he Canopy Layer are the power house and the mango tree.The Understorey Layer are small trees waiting to grow.Examples of the Forest floor are the peacock fern and the Bat lily.
By Jia Wei
I not really enjoy the trip.I learn
that the rainforest is an important
place to the animals.Because,many people had been cutting down trees.
I,Seak jing yi ,wish all the poisoness,non-poisoness,bad,naught,

by carissa
I enjoyed the Rainforest Walk and learnt many things.There are forests of tall trees with an enclosed canopy.They grow near the Equator where the climate is warm and humid.
too bad, i did not go to the rainforest walk....
I learnt alot of fact during the Rainforest walk.The 'Ranger' told us about lot of different plants. I think that the trip is very interesting but i also felt tired. I also learnt things like the four types of layers that can be found in the rainforest. The most interesting thing is when we saw a 'worm' like insect coming down from a tree, the insect move like from 'L' shape to U shape 'L' shape to 'U' shape......
But when it reached 3.20pm it started to drizzle. We have no chioce but to get in to the shade.
We also receive a book mark from the ' ranger'i wished that i could visit the rainforest again.

i enjoyed and did not enjoyed the Rainforest walk.i learnt that if u take a leaf frm the rainforest, you will get fine $10000!!! That is not crazy as the goverment has protected the rainforest. i also learnt that some trees are over a million years old!AMAZING! i also learnt that the rainforest is about 160 hecter(i think)which is about 200 football fields!i also learn that monkeys like plastic stuff as one of the monkey took one of the tour guide important stuff.i also do not like the rainforest walk is the cause of the EXTREAMLY STEEP SLOPE!IT WAS SO STEEP THAT IT WAS LIKE rolling down the slope. Thankfuly i did not fall.Another thing i did not like about the walk is climbing up the hill.some of the steps are so high that your pants may tear apart!
Thats all!

Dear Class,
I enjoyed reading all your comments very much. I am really glad most of you had a great time at the nature reserve. I am sure the raffles museum will be a blast too.
PS: Jingyi, I feel you could have done better. I hope to see more thoughful comments the next time round.
I had enjoyed the Rainforest walk a lot.There are a lot of interesting insects,plants animals and in the Bukit Timah Nature Reserve.I managed to see some insects like the Forest dargonfly,Forest cricket, St.Andrew'cross spider which is about the size of my plam and the Cicada which makes a lot of noise and when it stops it means it is going to rain.I did not really saw any animal except the cheeky monkey.
haha.. jing yi comment is reali veri funni!
