On monday our group went to the geology building to check out a model of a creek on a stream table. We learned about the progression of streams and some critical components of real life creeks. After the educational time we spent around an hour constructing and demolishing dams in the stream table. At the end we built one big dam across the entire table and held lots of water. It worked great for a little until it collapsed. We got wet and dirty but had lots of fun!Monday, July 20, 2009
Fun on the Stream Table
On monday our group went to the geology building to check out a model of a creek on a stream table. We learned about the progression of streams and some critical components of real life creeks. After the educational time we spent around an hour constructing and demolishing dams in the stream table. At the end we built one big dam across the entire table and held lots of water. It worked great for a little until it collapsed. We got wet and dirty but had lots of fun!
Getting wet and muddy never looked like such fun!
ReplyDeleteFluffy can't wait to learn how to demolish a dam! But Fluffy will need to learn how to build one first...
