Curated OER
Ocean in a Bottle
Students investigate pollution in water. In this pollution activity, students participate in an experiment to simulate water pollution. Students observe how the water reacts to the "pollution."
Curated OER
Water Works
Students investigate water use and what happens at a water treatment plant. They define and discuss key vocabulary terms, view a diagram of a water treatment plant, and conduct an experiment that simulates the water filtration process.
Curated OER
Water Cycle Terrariums
Learners explore the water cycle. They build a model of the water cycle in the form of a terrarium and explain how it demonstrates the water cycle. In addition, they draw a representation of the water cycle demonstrated in the terrarium.

Go to the Source- Your Town's Tap Water
Students investigate their town's tap water. In this water quality lesson, students complete a simple taste-testing experiment and online research to investigate tap water.
Curated OER
The Water Cycle
Second graders conduct an a water cycle experiment. In this water cycle instructional activity, 2nd graders observe a puddle of water, they predict how it got there and what will happen to it. Students watch a demonstration on the water...
Curated OER
Water Cycle Bag
Young scholars enclose water in an airtight bag and leave it in a warm area to view the water cycle. In this water cycle lesson plan, students observe evaporation, condensation, and precipitation. They then discuss what they learned...

Water: A Necessity for Life
Students examine types of aquifers and make a model landfill. In this water usage lesson, students determine the difference between confined and unconfined aquifers. They build a model landfill, observe it for two weeks, and analyze what...
Curated OER
Water Filtration
In this water pollution and filtration lesson plan, 5th graders read the story 'Saving Salila's Turtle' and discuss the impact pollution has had on the Ganges river. Students work in groups to brainstorm different types of water...
Curated OER
Physics: Water-Bottle Rockets
Young scholars research how physics laws create motion and propel rockets. They examine how to build water-bottle rockets.
Curated OER
Water Filtration
Students demonstrate the four of five procedures that municipal water plants use to purify water for drinking. A water filtration system is designed by a student and their partner. A data chart is made to record all observations when the...

Do Cities Affect the Weather? (Making a Cloud in a Bottle)
The dynamics of a city can have a drastic effect on the weather. A hands-on lesson asks learners to build a model to illustrate how city pollution provides a nucleus for condensation. The greater the pollution, the greater chance for...
