Week of April 22

The students wrote paragraphs about our trip to Cape Disappointment.  Here are their paragraphs.  

At Cape Disappointment we had a lot of fun!  On the first day we went to Fort Canby and had lunch then we went to the Lewis and Clark Interpretive Center.  On the next day we went to Fort Columbia and Fort Clatsop and had a lot of fun!  On the last day we packed, ate breakfast, then we took a 2 mile walk and then we went back on the bus to come back to this place.  I learned a lot and I really liked all the places we went to! 

When we went to Cape Disappointment, we did many things.  On the first day (after an extremely long bus ride which was actually pretty nice), we went to Fort Canby and played in tunnels after lunch.  Then we listened to a park ranger tell a story about Lewis and Clark.  After that, we went to a museum, went to our yurts (they're circular tents that are really nice), settled in, went to the beach, came back, had dinner, and went to bed.  Those are only some of the things we did at Cape Disappointment. 

On Thursday we went to many places but I'm going to tell you about the batteries we went to.  The first was Battery Ord, it was huge like a mansion!  It had all different rooms.  Some were huge and some were small.  There were 2 batteries in a row.  You could climb on top of them and go downstairs to different rooms.  There was a really well hidden battery in the side of a wall covered with plants.  Then there was a battery under ground but we couldn't enter.  It was really fun!  I hope I get to go again some time. 

On our trip we did lots of fun stuff.  On the first day we went to the beach near the yurts.  The first and second nights we slept in the yurts.  We went to a museum and 2 forts.  We sure had a lot of fun. 

When we went to Cape Disappointment we did lots of things.  On the first day we stopped at a bunker and the Lewis and Clark Interpretive Center.  We took lots of pictures of the view that the Interpretive Center had. When we finally got to the yurts we got with our group and went to the beach.  We found these very cool forts there.  After we ate chicken and shrimp and for dessert we had s'mores.  After dinner we had some time to play and then went to bed.  On the second day we got up and explored what Lewis and Clark did! 

Our trip to Cape Disappointment we saw many things.  We saw Fort Canby (which was totally epic).  We also saw Fort Columbia (which was epic too).  And we saw Fort Clatsop (that's a lot of forts!!!).  We saw lots of cool stuff. 

On our trip the beach and the yurts were awesome!!!  The yurts were pretty big and the "sleeping" part was fun because our cabin totally "slept".  Also there was a huge backyard thing that rocked!  Then at the beach (which happened to be within walking distance) we made awesome forts!  My favorite part of the trip was definitely the yurts and the beach.  Yeehaw! 

When we went to Cape Disappointment we went to various forts, but I will write about Fort Columbia.  There were big cannons, barracks, and underground rooms.  One underground room had a grave in it.  I remembered that the flash of a camera in a dark haunted room, a ghost would show up.  So I took a picture, and saw two white orbs.  I remembered that white orbs represent spirits.  So I ran out and climbed the ladder back to the top. 

At Cape Disappointment, we did many things.  First, we went to a bunker.  It had a lot of rooms!  Then, we went to an interpretive center, it had a great view!  Next, we went to a 15 by 15 foot yurt (tent), and that was cozy!  After that, we went to a bunker, it was wet and creepy.  Last, we went to the beach. 

These are the forts we saw at Cape Disappointment:  Fort Clatsop, Fort Canby, and Fort Columbia.  Those are the forts we saw and they were EPIC!!!!  

On the trip to Cape Disappointment, we had a lot of fun.  We went to a few forts.  We also went to the beach.  Lastly, we went to Oregon.  That is what we did on the trip to Cape Disappointment.  

When we went to Cape Disappointment, we did a lot of things.  I loved Fort Canby, Columbia, and Clatsop.  Also, I loved Middle Village.  And last I loved the seals.  I had a lot of fun studying Lewis and Clark.  

On the way to Cape Disappointment we went to the beach.  We found a gasoline tank and made a fort out of sticks.  We went to Fort Columbia.  It was very cool and dark.  We found a ghost, it was an orb representing a spirit.  We went to Fort Clatsop.  It was fun.
