When we took our field trip to Kennecott Copper Mine we saw the pit and all of the hauling trucks. After being outside we went inside and saw the museum and all of the things they had at the mine like how you see copper everywhere. And I learned how we use copper in our lives every day. Like pots and pans, we use them to cook with. When we went to the Aquarium we saw all of the fish and like there were sharks, stingrays, jellyfish, ext. At the Aquarium there was fish, and the stingrays you could touch them. And I learned that they cut the stingers off every three months. They kept the male stingrays in with the sharks because it was mating season and when the babies come out they come out with there stingers on and that would be a hassle to cut off all of them.
