Our Water Cycle Experiment
We made a water cycle in a bag! We let it sit all week to see if the water would evaporate. As we have been observing them this week, we noticed that the water line is not going down.
So as we talked about the sun heating up the water, and how it turns it into a water vapor gas. We came to the conclusion that the water vapor is TRAPPED in the bag! What a discovery we made! We could see the condensation on the baggie walls, but it had no where to go!
So we decided to put our water in an open container and draw a line where the water stops. Now we will see if the water will evaporate.
What do you predict will happen now!?
