Well, Awesome Aquifers isn't really heavy. Compared to Dynamic Planet, that is. There are going to be 4 stations, 10 minutes each.
Station 1: Written Test
Station 2: Written Test
Station 3: Build an Aquifer, Make Notes for Presentation
Station 4: Give Presentation

Dose anyone have a list of things that we should prepare to demonstrate in our model?

Also how should the rocks be layered in the model? Dose it really make a difference?

A list of sample building concepts can be found on soinc.org on one of the links, and the layering of the rocks depends on what you are trying to demonstrate, for example for porosity you could have two different types layered and show the difference between the two, et cetera.

I couldn't find that list. Unless it was just the list on the sutdy guide.

I can't find it now, sorry, but there is the one on the study guide. That is a start.

Is there a limit to the amount of supplies we can bring?

There was a recent clarification on that which says that you can really bring as much as you want (within reason)

When some of the building concepts are porosity and permeablilty, do you have to have two different types of materials to contrast, or can you demonstrate them with just one?
