Process - ( use verbs or doing words in each step )

Step 1

Cut the bottle in half after the teacher put a slit in the middle so we could continue the cut and turn one half into a funnel and the other half into a container..

Step 2

Put the top half upside down .inside the half with out the hole. 

STEP 3

Add layers of filter paper then add 1 cup of sand.

STEP 4

Get 1 cup of dirty water from the teacher.

STEP 5

Pour dirty water into the sand and wait and see what colour you water turns as it filters everything out.

Findings

Write a short sentence about the water every 1 minute. 

Include 'How much water has filtered through', 'How fast it is dripping through', and 'How clear the water is'.

Minutes                          1.                         2.                   3.                    4.                       5.
Drops per minute: 120 drops
Water colour: light brown
Conclusion:

The water turned clear but with a hint of brown and green. For our group the water flowed at approximately 120 drops per minute. The bark soil and leave sat on top of all the pebbles and sand.

All about Me Logo Design

This is my logo design that I have been working on the past 3 weeks. We have to be able to Know what the logo is even when you shrink it down. We had a color chart to look at so I chose green because it was for being outdoorsy and pink for being feminine. Do you have any feedback for me?

Thinglink And Befunky

We all went on befunky and took a photo of our selves and then we used some props like glasses and lots of others. Then we went on thinglink and put the face on it and made bubbles with facts about us.
