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, βSand Canyonsβ, students created a model landform using sand that was mixed with just the right amount of water. Then, they dripped water over their βlandβ 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. ππ #EWSD
