A made-up puddle has less visible liquid later. Add one clue you would want for evaporation and one for soaking.

Try it

  1. Write evaporation and soaking as two possible explanations for the smaller puddle.

  2. For each explanation add a clue you would want to check, keeping those wanted clues separate from supplied observations.

  3. Check the product and say why you kept or changed one part. Tell or show it in your usual way: words, drawing, pointing, signing, typing, dictation or your communication device. Work quietly or privately, pause, ask for a helper, or return later. Sharing and recording are optional.

Grown-up help **Look for:** Separate a proposed clue from a recorded observation; do not demand that gas be visible. **Next help:** If a wanted clue is described as already observed, mark it “to check” and reread only the actual smaller-puddle observation.
