The Factors That Determine Absorption of Surface Runoff

Today, we examined the factors that determine the amount of surface water runoff absorbed by the ground. The six factors are: Type of Soil, Condition of Soil, Porosity of Soil, Kinds of Vegetation, Amount of Vegetation, and, finally, the Season of the Year (rainy season or dry season).

Conferences
The afternoon went well. Parents are very concerned and interested in their childrens' school work. It was great to see the love and cooperation between child and parent and it was cute to see the nervousness of the children as parent and teacher met. C'mon, kids. I'm your biggest cheerleader.

Okay, So I have a couple of hours before my next set of student-led parent conferences. Gonna run home, in a few minutes, take the dog for a quick walk in the rain and grab some supper.

Have a great night.
