I can only use tirrell burner, rubber tubing, evaporating dish, 4 beakers, filter paper, a funnel, watch glass, scoopula, forceps, stirring rod, distilled water, wash bottle, magnet, tape, and zip-block bags. Please help all substance must be pure and placed in plastic bags. I AM DESPERATE!

This is for a science (specifically Chemistry) lab we were doing. Our teacher brought out a beaker with a muddy mix of water and dirt, telling us to try and seperate the dirt from water and produce as much pure water as possible. We have access to all the equipment at school, like the bunsen burners, beakers and such. He instructed us to create an original way to filter out the dirt. We are allowed to bring materials or supplies from home, although he suggested not to bring coffee filters as that isn’t very original… and I have been brainstorming with no conclusions. Any suggestions or cool ideas?
