Yesterday in Science we read this book:
Through this book and the mini experiments it lead us to do, we discovered some things about water.
First we learned that water flows and takes the shape of whatever is holding it. It is rectangular in this picture because the glass dish is a rectangle.
Then we watched how water sticks to itself and forms a drop of water...
which inevitably lead to catching the drops with our tongues.
Karis is further noting how water sticks to itself by observing how the bristles on this brush only stuck together when we got them wet.
In this picture, Malachi has just discovered that water doesn't stick to everything-- like wax paper (or even a duck's back since God made it that way so they wouldn't get cold in the winter while diving in the water)
Water does stick to some things... like paper towels. And it is really cool to watch the water move up the paper towel.
and long before we got to this part in the book, Karis was already discovering that water sticks to us...
and it is really fun to pretend like the water and paintbrush is nail polish.
Asher just had fun playing with the water and the brush.
So, we learned that we get wet because water flows, sticks to itself, and then it stick to us!
