Pond Water Observations and Investigation

Students use their skills of observation and comparing when looking at two kinds of water. Use clear containers and give each set of students a school water sample and a pond water sample.

Allow the use of tools like a flashlight, magnifying glass or pipette for students to safely observe the clarity and content of the pond water. Let students help collect the school water and share their recorded pond water observations.
