Properties of Water: Cohesion and Adhesion

My students really liked this activity. It was slightly out of place when I taught it because we are not starting our Chemistry unit until after our unit on Waves, but I felt that the students took their new knowledge of cohesion and adhesion and applied it to what they learned about waves, including why water is able to form plunging breakers and how it moves in a general mass.

Attached are the documents I used for the activity with my students. They glued the half pages on the left sides of their notebook and took notes and observations on the right sides.
