Last week we began learning about things that change land and discovered a surprising culprit: Water. We found that the speed of the moving water is directly related to the rate of erosion on the land. Fast-moving water causes the land erode more quickly, while slow-moving water causes the land to erode more slowly. And because we are super official scientists, we tested our theories using our favorite part of the scientific method... experimenting!

{We poured water over a mountain of sand at different speeds, then investigated the results}

. . .

Here are some journal entries where people recorded the results from their experimentation:












We just began learning how to journal to show change over time... we got pretty into this comic-strip style of journaling!
