Description:

 H2O Below, originally designed for the Illinois Middle School Groundwater Project, funded by the W. K. Kellogg Foundation, introduces groundwater into the middle school science or social science curriculum.  The teacher’s guide contains chapters and hands-on activities on the importance of groundwater, groundwater hydrology, contamination, conservation, testing, and current issues.  The goal of the project and curriculum is to create a community/school-based partnership that focuses on understanding groundwater issues.  Using the Groundwater flow model and the sequential curriculum, students are able to explore and experiment with the water cycle as they build the knowledge and skills to become informed decision-makers.
