Water: A Portfolio of Student Learning

In this picture the class was acting as water in a liqiud,solid, and gas form. We were learning about the molecules of water and the way they act based on the wheather it is in. If water is in a spot that is hot its molecules will move around really quickly so the molecules can't attach so they will turn into vapor. If water is in a spot that is cold it will move slowly allowing the molecules to attach and frease into a solid (ice).

1.      What is an aqueduct? What makes the Croton Aqueduct an aqueduct?

  An aquedust is a artificial channel that is constructed to convey water from one location to another. The word is derived from theLatin aqua, "water," and ducere, "to lead."

2.      Why was the Croton Aqueduct built? What need was it constructed to fulfill? The Croton aqueduct was built because its fresh water is needed in New York and it can release it so we can just turn on the fuacet.

 Cohesion is when something sticks together like water's molecules they stick together only when its cold because it is moving around slow but when its hot it moves around everywhere in the air because it turns into vapor. Adhesion is the tendency of certain dissimilar molecules to cling together due to attractive forces.
