These particles need to stand in line!



























Wow, that is a really long line. And standing in line is really tough. But I guess if you are waiting to get into an awesome party it could be worth it.

Anyway, tonight's assignment is to write a story describing sugar particles' experience at an H2O party. You will need to decide which kind of sugar it is (powdered, granulated, or cubed). Also, keep in mind that the story should be metaphor for the experiments we conducted last week. So for example, when the sugar has to wait in the long line outside of the party, it could represent the time before we place the sugar (solute) into the water (solvent). The sugar going around and meeting H2O at the party can be a way of showing what happens when we agitate the solution. And if a LOT of sugar comes by later and they are not allowed in the party this could show that the solution is now saturated, so no more solute can dissolve into the solvent.

Whatever you decide, be creative and have fun! But make sure it is factually accurate. Keep in mind that this is a first draft, so it doesn't have to be perfect. (1/2 page - 2 pages)
