- After
identifying pollution problems in the school and schoolyard, write
the problems on cards, classify them in the Venn diagram
as in Session 1, and graph the types to find the most common problems.
- Implement
some of the school and schoolyard solutions.
- Research local
and state laws regulating pollution. (See Using
the Library Media Center for Project Research and Using
the World Wide Web for Project Research in the
Project Action Guide.)
- Research water pollution using Morgan’s
Acid Rain, Frost’s Keeping Water Clean, and other resources
(see Resources).
- Read
Tate’s Crabby’s Water Wish, Allsburg’s Just
A Dream, or Jeffers’ Brother Eagle, Sister Sky; then write
an original story with a message about pollution (see Resources).
- Take
a field trip to Lake Anna State Park, or another state park,
to test water quality,
as in the activity “A Check-up for Lake Anna” (see
Resources).
- See Build
Your Own Rain Garden in the Project Action
