Non-Nutrients: Fiber and Water
Students discuss how much fiber and water a person needs each day. They use beans soaked in water to show the benefits of water to the human body. They also learn the health benefits to eating healthy.
Curated OER
Water and Ice
Students observe what happens to water as it goes from a solid to a liquid. In this exploratory lesson students gain an understanding for the water cycle while working in groups observing what happens to water as it changes state.
