At the conclusion of a unit on environment, students discuss the ramifications of ecological neglect and abuse. Focusing on air and water pollution, endangered species, and littering, they generate the negative impact of these and develop rules (laws) and penalties for polluters.
This lesson focuses on three types of pollution and how students can work together to recycle.
Students will experiment with different ways to purify water.
Students will be able to:
1. Identify 2 or more pollutants in a bog, marsh, stream or other wetland area.
2. Relate a pollution prevention message through words and art.
3. Understand that some pollutants can not be seen.
