5th Graders Design Watering Devices for Dry Pond

Our 5th graders, who have taken over and planted our dry pond area, took on every gardener's challenge this week - how to water the plants when there is no nearby water source. Several inventive young gardeners designed some creative ways to get the much-needed (especially lately) water down to the dry pond, including backpack delivery systems, localized water catchers, and more. They also experimented this week with air pressure, learning how air can displace water in a fun and wet outdoor experiment.
