Have the students make a poster to raise awareness about the issue of sewage. Split them into groups of 2 or 3 and have them pick three pieces of information that really stood out for them and that they felt other people should be aware of.
The students will be able to describe how the three types of water pollution appear on their own and how they look when combined. Students will also be able describe the difficulties facing pollution clean-up.
Students will construct a water filter in order to understand the complexity of cleaning polluted waters. Students will also develop an understanding of the complex economics regarding water cleanup and the differences in available resources among different countries.
