Making puddles-our water cycle experiment

WALT explain what happens when water evaporates. 

What was our hypothesis?
We think that the puddle will evaporate faster in the sun then it will in the shade.


What we did?

1.So first my class filled a  2 litre milk bottle with water and Alani tipped it out to make a puddle.
2. Reina, Liv and Cleo drew around the puddle
3.Aafter 15min they went to check if the puddles evaporated and they did evaporate.
4.We kept checking for 2 hours and took some photos.

What happened

Both puddles evaporated but the puddle in the sun evaporated faster then the puddle that was  in the shade.

If the water is in the sun it will always will evaporate faster.

Describe what we did?
What happened? 
Think about which puddles disappeared faster? What caused the water to disappear?
Remember to add photo's to your blog post.

What I found tricky while doing the video was that sometime I would forget how to say some of the hard words.And what I liked about doing the video was that most of the words I knew so most of it was pretty easy.
