Illinois Coal and Our Environment
Students read and discuss the important environmental issues of acid rain and global climate change in relation to Illinois coal. According to the National Acid Precipitation Assessment Program, acid rain has had minimal effects on our...
Curated OER
CLEAN AIR ACT (1990)
Students investigate the effects of acid rain by conducting an experiment with bean sprouts and graph the results. In this Environmental Policy lesson, students visit a museum to identify examples of foreign and domestic policy on...
Curated OER
Observing Buffers In Lakes, Ponds And Streams
Students observe the effects of limestone on the acidity of water. Some areas of the nation have a lot of limestone in lake bottoms and in soil, which helps neutralize the effects of acid rain. Students see this effect first hand.
Curated OER
Air Quality
Students determine potential sources of major air pollutants, explain how acid rain is generated and how it affects the environment, discuss global warming, and explore protective role of ozone and cause of ozone layer thinning. Lessons...

Listening Guide for Changes in the Spheres Presentation
In this changes in the spheres worksheet, students take notes on the impacts that acid rain, nuclear accidents, flooding, forest fires, contrails discovery, oil spills, meteorite collisions and volcanic eruptions have on the atmosphere,...
Curated OER
Acids and Bases
For this acid and base worksheet, high schoolers read about the characteristics of acid and bases, the pH scale and neutralization reactions. Students match 10 terms with their definitions related to acids, bases and pH, they identify...
Curated OER
Acids and Bases
In this acids and bases worksheet, students answer 18 questions about acids, bases, titrations, pH of solutions and the ions that make solutions acidic or basic.
Curated OER
Acids, Alkalis and Indicators
In this pH worksheet, students describe acids and alkalis. Students determine is substances are strongly acidic or alkaline. Students use the color of universal indicator paper to determine the pH of given substances. This worksheet has...
Curated OER
Acid Rain Simulation
Students collect data on causes of Acid Rain. In this science lesson, students simulate the effects that produce acid rain, collect and analyze data from their samples. They relate science and statistics in this lesson.
Curated OER
Soiled Again
Students propose and perform an experiment using the scientific method. The purpose of the experiment is to discern some earth materials or combinations of earth materials that best increases the pH of "acid rain". From the results of...
Curated OER
TE Activity: Tears in Rain
Young scholars examine photographs before writing captions for them. They develop visual literacy as they see how photographs are manipulated to show the effects of acid rain. They rewrite the photo captions after a class discussion.
Curated OER
What is pH and Why is It Important?
Students investigate about acids, bases, and pH and relate this information to the problem of acid deposition. They use pH paper, students test common household substances to determine whether they are acidic, basic, or neutral. Pupils...

Photosynethsis....How do we know it's really happening? - Biology Teaching Thesis
High schoolers think of one way to detect photosynthesis in plants besides those ways shown in class. They identify the reaction that occurs during photosynthesis. Students define the difference between an acid and a base. They identify...
Curated OER
Polluted Rain
Students identify and analyze how acid rain can affect the environment. They then explain how air, water, and pollution interact and conduct pH tests to find acidity levels in water. Finally, students become "Pollution Watch Reporters"...
Curated OER
Acid in the Water
Ninth graders learn about the effect pollution has on water and how this affects their community. In this environmental awareness lesson, 9th graders expand their vocabulary and create a flowchart that demonstrates the process of acid...
