Now that the students helped Samuel's family dig a well, and clean their water, they had to help Samuel build a pipeline to transport the water from the well to the pumpkin patch. The students had 4 straws, three clothespins and a 2x2 square of tinfoil. The pipeline had to be at least 30cm long and transport at least 30ml of water into a Dixie Cup. Getting the water into the pipeline proved to be the most difficult part. There were many redesigns! Students found that creating a funnel with the tinfoil to pour the water into so it could enter the pipeline was the most successful tactic.
