Seed Planting - Day 3
Today the class and I are doing a science Planting Project our task is to get into 2 partners and with your we are finding out the best condition for growing a seed/plant, we are doing an experiment, the first start of an experiment is that you do a prediction. Im predicting that we will start to see signs in week 1 day 6 of the procedure, Aurora is predicting that she will see signs on day 5 Week 1.
Our seed is soaked with the paper towels , we have 3 paper towels placed in our fiberglass. Our seed has 100 ml of water, the paper towels and water are equal. Our seeds will be planted out in the “Direct sunlight”.
Today is only day 3 and so far we see the seed expanding, the color fading and the water soaked up into the Paper Towel.

Water Cycle Writing
Water Cycle -
Do you know what a Water Cycle is ?
In a Water Cycle there are 4 Processes, Condensation, Precipitation, Evaporation and Collection.
Evaporation -
Evaporation is the begging process to the Water Cycle, evaporation is when warmth from the sun causes water from oceans, lakes, streams, ice and soils to rise into the air and turn into water vapour (gas).
Condensation -
Condensation , Water from the ground evaporates as Gas and vapour into the air and starts forming the clouds. Water evaporates due to the heat from the Sun. Evaporation is the primary pathway that water moves from the liquid state back into the water cycle as atmospheric water vapor.
Precipitation -
Precipitation is the third process in the Water Cycle, When the cloud is formed and gets too heavy it causes the water to fall as rain, snow, sleet or hail.
Collection -
Collection is the final process, collection is when the water is finally stored in lakes, oceans (etc). The process then starts again remaining from the very first process - Evaporation and it continues on and on.
These 4 Processes make up the Water Cycle.
