Cleaning up an Oil Spill!

We were doing the BP oil spill. We had to clean the water and the birds. The supplies was a clear cup, Dawn Dish soap,  a cup of oil, cotton ball, a feather, a small sponge, 2 small buckets, a filter, then blue food coloring. 1^st we poured blue food coloring in the water. 2^nd we poured oil in the bucket of water. 3^rd we tried to pour the oil with the water in the filter but the oil was to heavy so the oil leaked out. 4^th we then put Dawn Dish soap and it separated the oil and we took the oil out and put it in the other bucket. 5^th we took the feather out and clean it with the cotton ball. 6^th we took the bubbles of the water so the fish wouldn’t eat it. 7^th we took the oil of the floor of the water. That is how we cleaned the water.
