SubjectNest · Where did the water go?

Help an imaginary visitor

Choose puddle, cloud or outside drops. Make a two-line explanation that would help a visitor.

Choose one question: where could some puddle water go; how could outside drops form; or how could cloud water reach land?

Draw, dictate, point or type; you do not have to record audio or share your work.

Try one small explanation, then stop or return later. Tell or show it in your usual way: words, drawing, pointing, signing, typing, dictation or your communication device. Work quietly or privately, pause, ask for a helper, or return later. Sharing and recording are optional.

Grown-up help

Useful response: The message names an accurate process and a useful limit suited to the chosen question.

No equipment purchase, water handling, trip or private household data is required. Keep this ordinary practice separate from new assessment sources.
