3. Water samples We did not get any living creatures in our sample. This is because we had a bucket with no string so we had to collect our sample near the edge in the shallows.

4. Our Investigation On our first trip to the pond we recorded living and non-living things we saw. On our second trip we collected water samples in buckets to see if there was any living organisms in our local pond.

5. Is Our Pond Healthy? Yes. The arrow shows that the pond is neutral. The pond has changed colour over two years. The results were suprising because the pond was very brown. The pond was quite full due to a recent storm.

6. What animals could live in our pond? The animal up ahead can show you what animal can liv in our pond.
