Today we made gravel for our Opae`ula habitats. It was really fun, but it was kind of sad because one of my group members vase (what was what we will hold our Opae`ula). First, we loaded the gravel into our vase. Then, we cleaned out all the dust and other things that were on the gravel in this big bucket. We cleaned the gravel with fresh water. After we cleaned the gravel we took out big handfuls of it and put it in our vase. We had to empty some of the gravel because we were going to put in cinder. There was gravel on the side so we filed it up with fresh water so all the gravel would sink to the bottom. Then we carefully poured out the water. On the step before that was when my group members vase broke. :(
