Evaporation

Following on from last week's post, we left our bowls of coloured water and waited for a few days to see what would happen. We noticed that some water had disappeared....and after a few more days it had disappeared completely, leaving just the food colouring behind! But where did the water go? Some of us thought the water went down. So we had to think like a scientist and talk about what we noticed with our eyes. We then did a bit of research and found out that the water had evaporated - it had turned into a gas and was in the air around us! 

No more water! Where did it go?
