Basic
Water Quality Monitoring (grades 4-8)
Engage
your students in challenging laboratory activities designed
to help them develop an understanding of important natural
and human-caused water quality factors. Students will use
scientific equipment including pH meters, conductivity meters,
alkalinity test kits, and thermometers, and follow GLOBE
protocols to measure the water quality of various water samples.
Students will learn how these and other water quality factors
can affect drinking water and aquatic life. The advanced kit
includes more complicated chemical test kits, dissolved oxygen
and nitrate, and more advanced curricular materials.
If
you are planning a field trip to test a local water body,
additional field equipment is available with this kit. When
you reserve the kit, please specify if you want the field
component.
This
kit is only available to teachers who have completed appropriate
training through GLOBE, Inquiry and Water Issues, or WATER.
