Purification of Water
Students study the process of water purification and explain why it was important to treat it. In this water purification lesson students purify drinking water and explain the factors that affect water quality.
Curated OER
Drinking Water Around the World
Learners explore the concept of water quality. In this drinking water lesson, students discuss the quality of water around the world, conduct research about drinking water, and then write essays about water quality.
Curated OER
Water Pollution
Fifth graders investigate how humans pollute the water supply with a number of different contaminates. While working in small groups they examine screening, sedimentation, filtration, and chemical treatments as methods of water treatment.
