Conclusion:

The first try of our experiment was a fail so we have to do another one and it was kinda working until Mr. Plamer said that the experiment doesn't work so we have to plan another one. So Mr. Palmer thinks if we could put the sand, pebble and paper (which is where we put the dirty water) and this worked it was clear but it's a bit yellow it looks like pee actually but this experiment is kinda fun.
