The water cycle describes how water evaporates from the surface of the earth, rises into the atmosphere, cools and condenses into rain or snow in clouds, and falls again to the surface as precipitation. ... The cycling of water in and out of the atmosphere is a significant aspect of the weather patterns on Earth.

The following is a lesson to help my students develop a plan or ways to find pollution in the ocean to help the environment.

This article highlights the five essential components of cooperative learning, provides a quick overview of the research behind the strategy, describes three of the most common types, and offers ideas on how to get started using cooperative learning at the elementary level.

A Cartilha/Sequência Didática é parte do produto técnico pedagógico, que organiza uma Sequência Didática (SD), para tratar dos assuntos relacionados ao Ciclo da Água, Usos da Água, Poluição e Assoreamento dos Igarapés, entre outros temas, para alunos dos 5º anos das séries iniciais do Ensino Fundamental. A mesma, de maneira organizada e detalhada, discorre sobre os quatros momentos da sequência, além de explicar passo-a passo as regras e os jogos que compõem o Baú Ecológico.
o “Baú Ecológico”, é composto por quatro jogos, sendo um baralho, um jogo da memória, um jogo de bingo e um jogo da trilha, ressaltando que o jogo da memória surge de parte das cartas do baralho.
A Cartilha, assim como o Baú Ecológico, são personalizados com a “Turminha Cristal” (criação da própria autora da pesquisa). A turminha foi pensada e criada no sentido de organização e de representatividade dos povos amazônicos. contracapa.

Esta sequência didática é o produto educacional de uma pesquisa desenvolvida no Programa de Pós-graduação em Rede Nacional para Ensino das Ciências Ambientais (PROFCIAMB), da Universidade Estadual de Maringá – Campus Regional de Goioerê - PR que tinha como intuito promover uma reflexão referente ao “atual problema ambiental circunscrito à água” junto do componente curricular de Matemática, propondo assim, uma abordagem transversal e interdisciplinar, provocando a sensibilização e o processo ensino/aprendizagem dos alunos.

Elementary school lessons utilize local phenomenon and are organized by grade level. By organizing instruction around local phenomenon, students are provided with a reason to learn shifting the focus from learning about a disconnected topic to figuring out why or how something happens. #Going 3D with GRC

This article provides an overview of podcasts and suggestions for using podcasts in the elementary classroom.

This lab uses graham crackers and whipped cream to illustrate divergent, convergent, and transform boundaries.

Water is very essential and a major component of all living creatures. Pure water is colourless, tasteless and odourless, but is generally found in impure state. Water found in oceans, rivers, lakes and ponds appear of different colour. Suspended and dissolved particles influence the colour of water. Freshwater bodies sometime appear turquoise (blue-green) and bright sky-blue and catches the attention of people.
Turquoise and bright sky-blue appearing freshwater bodies are found in different parts of the world in different set of environmental conditions. For example, glacial-fed lakes also appear turquoise, crater lakes also bears turquoise colour and calcium carbonate rich water bodies also appear turquoise. Recently,
rivers polluted by anthropogenic activities are also seen to bear turquoise color appearance. The turquoise appearance of water bodies is mainly due to the scattering of light in the blue-green range of the spectrum
by suspended particles present in the water. There is diversity in the causal factor(s) responsible for such coloration in different set of conditions, but turquoise freshwater bodies originating under similar conditions in different parts of the world have some common characteristics. Moreover, the information about turquoise appearing freshwater bodies in different parts of the world are present but are scattered
into pieces. There is a great need felt for compilation of different turquoise appearing freshwater bodies in the world. In this paper, different turquoise appearing freshwater bodies throughout the world have been
identified. The causal factor(s) responsible for such coloration is also discussed. Since, the turquoise appearing freshwater bodies originating in similar conditions in different parts of the world bears some common characteristics, so based on it, a categorisation of turquoise appearing freshwater bodies for the first time is proposed in this paper for a better understanding. The categorisation has been supported by examples.

This unit is the first in the MSXR209 series of five units that introduce the idea of modelling with mathematics. This unit centres on a mathematical model of how pollution levels in the Great Lakes of North America vary over a period of time. It demonstrates that, by keeping the model as simple as possible extremely complex systems can be understood and predicted.

The Challenge:
The challenge is to design and build a water filtration device using commonly available materials. To meet this challenge,
students use an iterative repeating process as they build, test, and measure the performance of the filtration
device, analyze the data collected, and use this information to work towards an improved filtration design. It is the
same design process used by engineers and scientists working on ECLSS for NASA. Although students will work in
teams of two–three, they are encouraged to think of their entire class as a single design team working cooperatively
and learning from the efforts of all members in order to produce the best water filtration device.
Students measure the effectiveness of their filtration device using pH test strips. Detailed plans and a complete materials list are provided.

Food-growing Pipes In The Garden
Granted, this one may not look so pretty, but man is it useful!

Pest experts agree that this is a sure way to avoid insects attacking your plants. If you take this advice, you also save yourself a lot of back pain that comes along with picking up the fruit from the ground level. And perhaps what is most important, this simple trick reduces the water usage in your garden significantly.

The best part is yet to come:

You get to make use of all your compost!

Rubbish represents a menace to the earth, which is collapsing.
Some countries prove more careful than others.
