Water clock

Today we made a simple water clock. Water clocks are one of the oldest timekeeping devices and use the flow of water into, or out of, a vessel to measure the amount of time that has passed. 

The skills learnt in this activity included problem solving and understanding the world around us. 

This can help develop what we need for lots of different careers, including: scientist, teacher, historian, astronomer and astronaut.
