Hiawatha students are having fun learning about the Work of Water in their STEAM block. Students made hypotheses and investigated the causes of canyons. Throughout the activity, β€œSand Canyons”, students created a model landform using sand that was mixed with just the right amount of water. Then, they dripped water over their β€œland” to observe how water can change its shape and to understand how, over long periods of time, canyons can be formed through a similar process. 🌊🌊 #EWSD
