  1. Abigail Bagwell And Chayah Williams Larry the raindrop loses his family

  2. Suzy and Sam meet Larry • Suzy and Sam are playing outside when it starts to rain. Suzy hates the rain and suggests they go inside. They are about to go inside when they hear someone crying. They turn around to see who it was and they find a sad, lonely raindrop. They ask him what his name is and why he’s crying. He replied “ My name is Larry I’ve lost my family during the rain shower just now. Can you help me find them?”

  3. The search begins • Suzy and Sam decide to help Larry find his family. “Where did you last see them?” asked Sam. Larry raised his hopeful eyes and said. “During the water cycle I couldn’t see much so I don’t know where they landed.” “Water cycle?” asked Suzy. “The water cycle is what makes water evaporate up into a cloud and then once the cloud is full it starts to rain.”

  4. Larry gets stuck • As they were walking along in search for Larry’s family, Larry trips and gets stuck to a glass bottle in the middle of the sidewalk. Suzy and Sam ask why he’s just sitting there. “It’s because of adhesion.” Larry said. “Adhesion, what’s that?” Suzy asked.

  5. Larry finds cary • “Adhesion is when water gets stuck to a surface.” Larry said “I thought that was cohesion.” said Suzy. “No cohesion is when water gets stuck to another form of water.” “Oh” Suzy said. Sam leaned over to help pull Larry out and said. “Grab on I’ll pull you off.” Larry grabbed on and Sam pulled backwards. Unfortunately Sam wasn’t looking when he stepped back and fell, flinging Larry clear over his head. “Larry are you alright?” Sam and Suzy said running towards him. “Yeah but I think I hit something.” Larry said rubbing his head. “Ow” came a small voice. “ Are you alright down there?” Sam asked. “Yeah” came the reply and out stepped a small raindrop. “ CARY!” Larry exclaimed “I found you.”

  6. Crossing the river • “Now that Larry and Cary are together we have to cross the river. We have look for the others.” Sam said. “But how are we going to cross it? We’ll get stuck on other water droplets if we ride on you.” Cary pointed out. “You’re right that is a problem but I can help you.” came a voice. “Who’s there?” Suzy said looking around. “Down here!” Suzy looked down to see a spider standing on the water. “How are you standing on the water, are you a wizard?” “No nothing like that, it’s a wonderful thing called surface tension.” laughed the spider. “What’s surface tension?” asked Cary. “ It’s something that allow me to walk on water. This river acts as if it covered by a thin plastic layer, and that’s how I’m standing here right now.” explained the spider “Climb on my back, I’ll let you ride on my back across the river.”

  7. Middle of the river • As they got towards the middle of the river Suzy got thirsty, and because of her fear of water she always carries a straw around for this type of situation. Suzy pulled out her straw and stuck it into the water, when something strange started to happen. The liquid started to rise up the straw. “Oh my goodness the water went right up my straw! How did it do that?” Suzy said “Oh that it’s called capillary action, it’s when water goes up a narrow tube or into small openings.” Larry explained. “You know a lot about water!” Suzy said. “Of course, I have to I am a raindrop after all.” “I know lots of things even Cary knows all about water. Why don’t you tell them about polarity Cary?” “Okay ,polarity is the action of a molecule with sides that have opposite charges, which means that they are not balanced.” “Wow you sure are smart.” Sam said “Thanks my dad taught me.”

  8. We found Mother mary • Mary watched as a cat, a dog, Larry, Cary, and a spider climbed out of the river. She couldn’t get their attention, so she looked for something that would get their attention but wouldn’t harm them. She found a Kool-Aid packet and dumped it in the river. The powder landed in the river and dissolved and caused the river to turn red. Larry and Cary looked up at Mary. “Thank goodness for universal solvent, without it they would have kept walking without noticing me.” “Hey Mary, this is Sam, Suzy, and Mr. Mike the spider. Without them I wouldn’t have found you and Cary.” “Thank you for all your help and oh what’s that!” “Wow, I’ve never seen that happen before!” Sam said “Oh, you should know that honey. Water dissolves almost everything.” Larry said. “Oh right, how could I have forgotten that? Silly me.”

  9. Where’s jerry? • While walking through the park Sam suddenly stopped and turned to Larry. “Something's been bothering me now how did you and your family get separated anyway? I though your hydrogen bonds were really strong.” “Oh no dear, hydrogen bonds are in fact very weak bonds and with the wind blowing we were forced to let go.” Mary said sadly as she walked under a magnifying glass. “Oh my, it’s hot under here!” “I’m not warm at all. In fact, I’m cold.” Suzy said. “Oh well, I’m warm because of specific heat, it’s when a specific amount of energy is needed to heat one gram of a substance, like say water by one degree Celsius.” Mary explained. “Mommy!” came a voice “Jerry?” Mary asked turning around to see a young raindrop running towards her. “Jerry, I missed you so much. Come give me a hug!” Mary said opening her arms wide. “Thanks for everything you’ve done for us, you really helped us out.” Larry said “No problem.” Suzy, Sam, and Mr. Mike said together. “Thanks for teaching us so much about water properties.”

  10. Larry’s fun facts • Hey kids, this is Larry here and I’m going to teach you all the fun facts about water. You may think what’s so fun about water? Well here’s what’s fun about water. The world is made up of two-thirds of water. Without it we couldn’t survive. Unfortunately 97% of the earth’s water is salt water and 2 of the 3 % is ice and glaciers which just leaves us 1% of water to drink. In fact your on body is made up of 2/3 water. Your brain itself is made up of 75% of water That’s more than half of your body! Water can take three forms, and is the only substance that can be a solid, a liquid, and a gas. Actually water is made up of two elements, hydrogen and oxygen.
