So... today on Sunday September 24 at 4:00 PM. I made my second visit to my area. It was sunny and about 83 degrees fahrenheit out. Today was a 12 hour  4 minute day. We had a sunrise at 7:34 am and a sunset at 7:38 PM. Some things a saw: The leaves are changing colors: Here are some flowers: This is a leave... not sure what's happening but  I thought it looked cool: I herd birds and cicadas. I could also hear leaves rustling and the crunching of dead leaves under my feet. Here are pictures of what my location looks like if I turn around and take pics:

Field study Test

Driving question: How does the clarity of the water change as it gets colder out? Hypothesis As it gets colder outside, the water will get clearer. Collect some water to test in the turbidity tube Make sure you are in a bright area Look down the tube Slowly let water out of the tube As soon as you see the pattern at the bottom, close the clamp to stop the water Record water level using the measurements on the side Materials: Turbidity tube Water from the pond Constant: Right at the end of the pond by the fallen tree part is where I’ll get my water At pond around 3. Fill the tube with water. This is my table: Water turbitity Date Trial1 Trial 2 Trial 3 Average of this time Average of the Averages Source: Beka Roelofs
