6th Grade/ Transportation of Water!

Transportation of water from rivers to fields in an easy manner was a problem for early farmers. They certainly didn’t want to carry it all by hand. Using only simple machines they created methods or devices to move water. Your challenge starting tomorrow in class is to create a device that will move water (rice as a substitute) from the river to the field, which is 1 meter away, in as short a time as possible. You will only have certain supplied materials and several constraints! Are you up to the challenge?
