Land and Water Lesson 4

On January 13, Ms.Kiley came to my class to basically do the same thing we did last time but a different way. Instead of  pouring water from a bottle on the stream table we used a cup with a small hole in it.

We got different jobs but we kept our letters. Since I was letter A I was catch bucket holder which is the person who gets the leftover water from the stream table.

In our stream table( plastic box thing)we added more sand. Then person C got to chop and mix the mud mixture up. He made it a slope.

Then person D got to pour the water in the cup so the experiment will work. When she poured a little nothing happened  but when she poured a lot more the stream table had a stream.

I collected a lot of water from the experiment. We also had to get a graduated cylinder. A graduated cylinder is a cylinder that collects the last 50 milliliter of the water left. And that is what happened when Ms.Kiley came for lesson 4.
