No, my levee failed. It likely failed because there was not enough sand and the bag was not strong enough. We should have used cardboard as a wall.

No, my levee failed because it had to much sand and rocks which made it sink to the bottom and travel underground went past the sponge, clay, and cotton balls to only letting the clean water across the levee to make it flood, but even though it failed, I think my group (me, Samantha and Maya) still did good.

Our levee worked because we used clay puffballs cardboard with a bag on the outside and our sponge I think it worked because the sponge soaked up the water and had a little bit of water on the town side there was allot of water on the lake side the rest of the water was stuck in a pool we did not make the hole so it worked

Yes because only a little water got in and it did not flood
And that is good for the people,It did not flood as much
Because we put a lot of clay and cotton balls so it helped
Absorbed the water and the
Water just went underground
So the water barely got onto
Land,And I put a lot of work into the sides and bottom because I know that water can seep through the bottom and I want to make sure that water would not get on land because I can’t everyone to be safe for now and forever, Than is how I know
That our build survived
But in hurricane Katrina
A boat crashed into the
Wall and then that is how
I can fix the mistakes
In hurricane Katrina
So we can be ready
For next time,
And we all can be
Safe for next time.

Yes. I

think it was good because it has a lot of decorating and it was strong. We worked on the bottom of the wall a lot then we focused on the levee. We started the town and then did the lake. When we where done we did decorating. And it came out good and survived the flood. My group was me ,Jayla and michael. I thought they did good to. It turned out good. I think the decorating made it look cool. I loved making it and I had a lot of fun. I hope everyone else had fun like me. Other people did good to. they had really good ideas. Some flooded though the flooded ones had good ideas. I was happy that. Everyone did good =).

Yes.I think it did work because it barley had any water in it when the water was poured in the tub. I think it worked very well for Liam,Donavan,and I. We thought it was going to flow and we were nervous when we did it. But it worked! We put 3 layer walls for the water to flow the ocean. But not the town. We also put a sponge and clay on the sides for them to get the water.We also did a bag for the water to not spread the town... P.S. We thought it was awesome!!!!!!!!

I think it worked because the Spohn socked up all the water because the Sand had a little bit of water in side on the sand

Nathan I think it worked but a little a little flooded so I think it did not work because it had a little flooding because water got to the land and the land was flooded with water I should of used lots of duck tape and lots of cotton balls and lots of clay.
