Douglas 4-H Summer Program Science Week 1

This week in science we talked about the importance of water and how everything living needs it. We also talked about how much water we can use and what is available to us in the lesson called Earth Apple. In the lesson we asked the kids to predict how much water we can use. Then, we cut an apple to give them an idea of exactly how much water is available. The amount of usable water was around 1/16 of the apple. We also did a lesson called Water Cycle in a Bag to demonstrate how the stages of the water cycle look. The activity consisted of placing water, soil, and leaves in

separate bags and letting them sit in the sun.
