Terracing and cooking

Did you know that farmers that live on a high mountain have a big problem?
The problem is that when it rains all the mud comes down the hill and destroyes all the vegetables that they are farming. They have tried lots of things for the vegetables not to be destroyed, but the best ways are planting trees and making terracing. First, the trees help because the roots hold the mud so the mud doesn´t move and second is you make terracing- mud is not going to go fast enough to destroy the vegetables.

A sedimentary rock comes in different layers. The day before we went on the field trip,we made sedimentary rock that can be eaten. First,we put melted butter,then we put little pieces of cookies on top. Third,we put some cream, then some chocolate,white chocolate,at last some nuts. Yum! On the field trip,we went to see real sedimentary rocks. It is made when a volcano explodes some lava goes in to the water. There are different things like rocks and sand in the rivers,layers form then it gets pressure,different things come together. Then it makes a sedimentary rock.

Making our rocks!!
