Fishkill
Students analyze data to determine the effect of thermal pollution on a certain species of fish. They graph temperature and dissolved oxygen and make inferences on the impact a change in temperature could have on the fish. As a class...
Curated OER
Reversible/Irreversible changes
Students observe an online activity where they see some solids dissolving and some not dissolving. In this dissolving lesson plan, students learn which solids will dissolve, melt, and which won't. They will also see which effects are...
Curated OER
Water Quality
Students use a microcomputer connected to a conductivity probe to measure the total dissolved solids in local area water samples. Students then compare their measurements with others in their class as well as other standard measurements.
Curated OER
Testing the Waters
Learners use test kits to measure the level of chlorine, iron, sulfide, and dissolved oxygen in tap (drinking) water and stream water. They post and evaluate the results of these water quality tests.
