Surface Water Leaves Branches Sand Dirt | Prediction I thought it was going to splash then go in the water. I thought it will slide of the leaf. I thought that the branch will absorb the water. I thought that it will go threw the sand and get soaked up when it goes thought the sand. I thought the sand and the dirt would work the same. | Actual The water hit the water then made a crater then plunged its self back up. It stuck to the leaf in the same puddle and never went through the leaf. The water soaked in the branch and turned the branch dark. The water went away but you could feel it on the branch. The water didn't get all absorbed by the sand there was still some water on the bottom of the cup. It just rolled through the sand. The dirt didn't let the water go much down. A lot of it just stopped on the top half. It seamed that it might make mud if we kept adding water. | Reflection I thought it was cool how the water goes down before it goes up. I always thought it just hit the surface of water and went up I never knew that a leaf was so sticky. I always thought that a leaf would be slippery to water. A little while ago I would of thought that the water would fall off the branch but I figured out that it soaked in when i saw a branch after it rained I never knew that you that sand didn't absorb much water. At the beach the water looks like it got absorbed but I guess not. I thought that dirt would soak up the water but it really didn't it thought that it was cool how it acted totally different then the other materials. |
Hi I am Darwin Drop the smallest rain drop of the drop family. I have been smashed in the middle of cloud with my ten brothers and ten sisters. We are bunched up waiting to get out. Finally one day when our cloud got dark my grandma and grandpa at the bottom of the cloud fell out. That is when I knew I will finally get to have the trill that other drops told me about. Out of no where my stomach drop. We were falling fast down to what some people call is earth. I was heading strait for Lake Michigan, but then a strong gust of wind blew me right in to Bucingham Fountain. I heard drop drop drop from all different cloud mates and other clouds drops. I hit the water and felt currant poling me to a vent I got poled in to the vent then up the center of the fount the spot out and when back in the pool of water this process went on for ever. The sun peaked out around the third time around the fountain I started to get warm and I went up and up and up, I didn't know what was happening finally after the longs time I got into a knew cloud. It was Cloud's Clown Academy for Drops. I didn't bother about being a clown because I knew if I told them the story of my journey that know body would care about the flow and when I was done with the story the same process of falling will happen again.
