Name 10 Water Journaling Before Viewing Activity 3 What role has water played in your life today? Think about everything you have done so far today. What things did you do that you could not possibly have done without the use of water? Tell about these things in a well-written paragraph. Water and you! What could you not have done today without water? ________________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________________ Water Cycle Video Quiz © Sunburst Visual Media, a division of Global Video, LLC
Name Did You Know? Teacher Note: You may want to use the science investigation sheet found on pages 31 and 32 of the Additional Resources.. Follow the steps to see what you can find out about water. Background Information: • Rain falling on the earth runs off as streams, evaporates, is held by soils, and soaks into the earth. • Water that soaks into porous rocks is called underground water, or ground water. Water will flow into porous rocks until the rocks become saturated. The level of saturation depends upon weather conditions and is higher during rainy seasons and lower during dry seasons. • The surface between the level of saturation and nonsaturation is called the water table. Underground water does not flow in streams, nor does it occur in lake-like pools, but is very similar to the model in this activity. A water well is a hole drilled in the earth to a point below the water table. Dry spells may cause the water table to lower, thus causing a well to go dry. In this investigation, you will measure the amount of water a porous rock will soak up and then observe a model of a water table and a well. 1. Gather materials: balance scale, sandstone samples, water, jar, cardboard tube, coarse sand, and an aquarium. Weigh the sandstone rock and record its weight. 2. Place the sandstone rock in a jar of water and let it soak overnight. 3. After the rock has soaked overnight, shake the excess water from the rock and weigh it again. Record the weight. How can you account for any change in the weight of the rock? Will rocks hold water? 4. Obtain a cardboard tube and an empty aquarium. Hold the tube in the center of the aquarium and fill the area around the tube with sand. Pack the sand firmly to help support the tube. 5. Slowly pour water all over the surface of the sand until the sand is wet. Where does the water go? 6. Carefully add more water. Observe the bottom of the aquarium through the tube for several minutes. Record your observations. Is this like a well? 7. Look through the glass of the aquarium side. Record your observations. Would you call this a water table? What is a water table? Before Viewing Activity 4 © Sunburst Visual Media, a division of Global Video, LLC Water Cycle Video Quiz 11
