Greetings!
Here’s an update on what we’ve accomplished this week, so far:
Monday – Vocabulary focused activities
Tuesday – Water Quality Around the World
We began by watching a small clip from Jay-Z’s Water For Life documentary. It was quite eye-opening for many students. We had a short discussion and then transitioned into our activity. It began with a short article about the 3 primary types of variables that impact water quality. From there, they analyzed information and infographics from Water.org. Again, another VERY informative website!
Wednesday – “Piecing It Together: Water Quality”
Students were given the opportunity to examine multiple sources of information to answer key questions of our puzzle and see the big picture of how different factors can influence the quality of water for organisms living in it as well as using it. Students can access this document through our Google Classroom!
Check out the images below to see how pages 80 and 81 look:
I hope everyone has a great evening!
