Rain Guages

I am not sure if you can see them at first glance, but there a bunch of rain gauges 

in the grass.  We taped a copy of four unifix cubes and a tongue depressor on the outside.

When we went to check on them, they were a little frozen! (ick!!!)

The child says to another, "Look at my leaf.  It is swimming in a hot tub!"

 Here was the blackline that we recorded how much rain had fallen the last few days.

One unifix cube- wow!  I didn't know it rained that much!
