  1. Investigation 1Part 1Water Observations Foss Story Which Way Does It Go Page 4

  2. Introduction We are reading this story to reinforce what we learned about the flow of water on a slope when we observed the water beads and domes on the wax paper on the tray.

  3. Vocabulary What is a slope?

  4. Vocabulary A slope is a slanted surface.

  5. Vocabulary What is flow?

  6. Vocabulary Flow describes the movement of a liquid on a surface. The liquid we observed is water. We observed its movement on a piece of wax paper over a slanted tray.

  7. Which Way Does it Go is expository or information text. Read the Title of the article. Talk to your partner to answer the question in the title.

  8. Which way does water go?

  9. Water always flows downhill.

  10. Track along while I read the story.

  11. Look out your window after a rainstorm. What happens to the rainwater? Some of it soaks down into the soil. Some of it runs along the top of the ground and on sidewalks and other paved surfaces. Because of gravity, all water always flows downward.

  12. Talk to your partner and tell them what happens to rainwater.

  13. Raise your hand and hold up the number of fingers to show how many of these ideas you talked about. Some of the rainwater soaks down into the soil.

  16. Raise your hand and hold up the number of fingers to show how many of these ideas you talked about. Melted snow flows down the sides of mountains. It forms brooks. Brooks join to form streams. Streams tumble over cliffs as waterfalls

  17. Water moves very fast where the slope of land is steep, and it slows where the slope of land is gentle. Lakes and ponds form when water is surrounded by high land. But water doesn’t stay still. It always moves to lower ground.

  18. Talk to your partner about how the water moves and what is formed when water is surrounded by higher land.

  19. Look at the pictures of the waterfalls and the river flowing through the countryside. Talk to your partner about in which picture the water is flowing faster. Discuss why you chose that picture.

  20. Raise your hand to share your thoughts about which picture shows water flower faster and why.

  21. ClosingRemember: A slope is a slanted surface. Flow describes the movement of water over a surface. Because of gravity water always moves downward to lower ground.
