Pupils study permeability and apply the concept to different types of ground materials.  In this ground surfaces lesson students complete a lab and fill out a table of their results. 

Ninth graders study and identify the six major drainage systems in Pennsylvania.  In this watershed activity students read an article, complete an activity and take a quiz on what they learned. 

Students recognize that all of the water on earth cannot be used for drinking and that the percentage of ground and surface water is a small percentage.  In this water lesson students identify ways to conserve water. 

Students examine wetlands and what the effects of destroying them will do.  In this wetland lesson students relate the importance of wetland functions to their own needs. 

High schoolers identify the differences in the water quality of a stream and complete water testing.  In this water quality instructional activity students collect aquatic insects and identify them. 

Students visit science museums. In this hands-on science lesson, students visit the Leith Conservation Trust, Catalyst, and the River and Rowing Museum in person or online to study Britain's waterways.

Learners conduct an experiment using leaf packs.  In this leaf lesson students complete an activity in groups and complete a handout. 

Students examine the different parts of a plant and each ones role.  In this exploratory lesson students complete several activities including a game of charades.

First graders investigate animal habitats. In this habitats lesson, 1st graders visit the woods to identify examples of food, water, and shelter that animals use to survive.  Students complete a worksheet.

First graders investigate water properties by participating in a hands on experiment. In this ice formation lesson, 1st graders examine real ice cubes in a bowl and identify the reasons why certain cubes melt faster than others. Students...

In this water worksheet, students watch a video on water, read a passage, complete sentences, write vocabulary words, and write a paragraph. Students complete 5 activities total.

Students observe the effects of layering water and what is more or less saline than normal. In this geoscience lesson plan students create saline solutions, layer them and observe how the water becomes different temperatures in different...

Students examine water quality and how to improve it, how to measure it and how it relates to human activities.  In this water quality lesson students sample water from different sources, and test the samples. 

Students examine runoff for the causes, the impact, and the solution.  In this investigative lesson students construct a three dimensional model of a watershed and provide information of contaminated runoff to their audience. 

Students identify where their water sources and explore a watershed on a map.  For this watershed lesson students walk a wetland, and identify sources of pollution.

Students view a presentation of water and land and how we need to protect our water resources. In this water lesson plan, students discuss how we rely on water, and complete activities in all subjects related to water.

Learners see how much runoff occurs by an average shopping mall parking lot.  In this groundwater instructional activity students complete a lab and a handout. 

Students write out sources of pollution and identify contaminants are most likely found in urban runoff.  In this pollution lesson plan students compare toxicity tests and chemical analysis of potential contaminants. 

Students observe the state changes in water. In this matter lesson, students observe, measure, and describe water as it changes state. Students explore how water can change from a solid to a liquid then back again. They journal their...

  Students discuss what a watershed is, and locate watersheds on a map.  In this watershed lesson, students use the information they have been introduced to and create a color coded watershed map of their own.     

Young scholars evaluate water quality of different sources.  In this water assessment lesson students chemical testing, identify biological factors in the stream, and write a paper on their position of the stream's quality. 

Students investigate water ways by conducting an experiment with classmates.  In this natural resources lesson, students define a watershed and identify where large ones are located within the United States.  Students utilize...

Students discover how islands form, how plant and animal species get there and what the term means.  In this biomes lesson students prepare a presentation that describes the life forms and geography of an island. 

Students examine the water cycle and the factors that interact with watersheds.  In this watersheds lesson students describe the purification process, trace the flow of infiltrate water through aquifers, and research the Internet to...
