Third - Fifth grade

Third grade

Water Cycle Boogie
Through the use of song and dance, the Water Cycle Boogie activity provides students with knowledge about how our water gets naturally recycled and cleaned by nature. Students will also get a chance to make bracelets symbolizing the different stages of the water cycle for better memory.

Watershed Maps
What is a Watershed? Watershed maps is a hands-on activity that provides students with a clear visual that demonstrates and defines the concepts of watersheds, and point and non-point source pollution.

Water Crossing
In this design challenge, students engineer a miniature raft that will carry “cargo” across a “river” as both native people and early settlers had to do. The goal of this activity is for small groups of students (using only sticks, string, and scissors) to carry their cargo for at least 3 seconds. This activity aims to explain the teamwork and thought processes that go into designing a water supply system.
