Our Trip to the Tide Pools

1. Last month my class took a field trip to the tide pools at the beach.
2. Our teacher told us to walk carefully because the rocks were wet and slippery.
3. We found sea stars, snails, and two tiny crab hiding under a rock.
4. My friend Marco touched a sea anemone, and it closes around his finger.
5. He jumped back, and everyone laughed, including Marco.
6. A ranger explained that tide pool animals live in water and in air every day.
7. When the tide goes out, they have to stay wet until the water comes back.
8. Before we left, we put every rock back exactly where we found it.
9. I hope we can go back next year to see what else lives there.
