What is mass failure and how does it affect the quality of the water? script

 in Class, we have been creating tasks related to water, to complete and present in a neat fashion. Me and my friend Alice have decided to do a puppet show, surrounding the topic of Mass failure, we have spent lots of time on this script and decided "why not let others read this?" so if you cant make it to our show, I hope you soak up a lot of information from this script :)

What is Mass Failure and how does  it affect quality of the river


ALICE(SANDY):

 So, what are we learning today, Frank?

MESUI(FRANK):

We are learning about…Mass failure.

ALICE: 

What do you know about Mass failure, Frank?

MESUI(FRANK):

 Mass failure is when the bank falls and tumbles into the river. It affects the water quality and shape. 

ALICE(SANDY): 

But, why is it so important-

ALICE(REBECCA): 

Hey guys! What are we talking about?

MESUI(FRANK): 

Mass failure.

ALICE(REBECCA):

 Can I join?

ALICE(SANDY):

 Yeah, I need to do something else, my apologies, Bye Frank! Bye Becka!

MESUI(FRANK):

Bye! So, Rebecca, we’re just looking at websites for info.

Hey, I found something! ‘What causes steambank erosion?’ It says this: Mass failure(which includes bank collapse and slumping) is where large chunks of bank material become unstable and topple into the stream or river. That is how it affects the shape of the river.

ALICE(REBECCA): 

That was a very good website, lots of information, and easy to understand, although I am still wondering, what does Mass failure have to do with the quality though?

MESUI(FRANK):

The contents of the sediment carried in the bank material can add dirtiness and bacteria into the river. 

Get it now?

ALICE(REBECCA):

Sediment? Isn't that like dirt, rocks and other stuff right?

MESUI(FRANK):

That's a simpler way of putting it.

ALICE(REBECCA):

I guess you could say we’ve hit rock bottom ay?

MESUI(SARCASTIC FRANK):
Haha… so funny…

ALICE(SANDY):

Hey, I’m back. Rebecca, your sister wants you.

What were we talking about again?

Right, mass failure.

TELL ME MORE.

MESUI(FRANK):

Hey, calm down ya farm! 

I dont know everything about mass failure, but he does… Say hello to Harold! If theres any extra info that you would like to know about mass failure, I bet ya that Harold would know about it,

also, bye Beck!

ALICE(REBECCA):

Bye!

ALICE(SANDY):

Bye Rebecca!

MESUI(HAROLD THE GIRAFFE) Pretend he has a lisp:

Mass failure, huh?

Well, I’ll make sure you know everything about it.

Before we start, What are we talking about?

How it affects the quality of the river, or how it occurs, what?

Alice(SANDY):

How mass failure affects the river, actually, what did you say?


MESUI(HAROLD THE GIRAFFE):

How it affects the quality of the river or how it occurs. Why?

ALICE(SANDY):

We’ll take that second option thanks.

MESUI(HAROLD THE GIRAFFE):

Oh… Okay then, listen up kids First, what is erosion?

Dirt that has been worn down by wind, or water.

Mass failure affects the quality of the river because it has dirt that contaminates the river

ALICE(SANDY):

We covered that.

MESUI(HAROLD THE GIRAFFE):

And I totally knew that.

ALICE(SANDY):

Sorry

MESUI(HAROLD THE GIRAFFE):

Its okay. now , where was I?

Mass failure affects the shape because it falls-

ALICE(SANDY):

We’ve covered that too

MESUI(FRANK):

bruh

MESUI(HAROLD THE GIRAFFE):

Bruh, listen kid, don’t interrupt me.

Now, mass failure happens because of the lower part of the river becoming unstable.

ALICE(REBECCA):

Thats it?

MESUI(HAROLD THE GIRAFFE):

yup.

MESUI(FRANK):

Hey Rebecca, where’d you come from?

ALICE(REBECCA):

I stayed here this whole time.

MESUI(FRANK):

Okay then… well anyways thanks Harold

MESUI AND ALICE(PUPPETS):

*bows down*

Thank you and goodbye.
