CHECK OUT OUR VIDEO!
*On Tuesday the children conducted their own research to find background information about WATER on Pebblego.com.
*On Wednesday after painting pictures with water, we "wondered" why our pictures disappeared, then we learned the scientific word for when things dry out.
EVAPORATION is the process when water as a liquid becomes a gas.
*Thursday the students recorded how long it would take for a water picture to evaporate.
HOW????
FIRST we painted a class picture with water on construction paper.
NEXT we set a timer for one minute.
THEN each student took pictures with our class I-PAD (again and again, and again) every 60 seconds until the picture completely evaporated.
LAST we talked about evaporation that happens many places in our world at home and at school. Pants that are damp, bath towels that are hung up to dry, an old apple, and our fish tank are all things that experience evaporation every day.
The video of the process of our "Exploration" can be found here AND on the "Observations Over Time" PAGE! ENJOY!
