Description
Hands-on Lab: Design your own 3-D watershed Pollution Simulation (apply/analyze)
Did you know... EVERYONE lives in a watershed!?
Objective: Understand what a watershed is and the science behind how pollutants travel from the land to the ocean.
This resource provides a solid foundation of understanding about what a watershed is and is combined with a hands-on activity/lab where learners are able to create their own model of a watershed and investigate how pollutants can enter and affect waterways.

NGSSMS-ESS3-1
Construct a scientific explanation based on evidence for how the uneven distributions of Earth’s mineral, energy, and groundwater resources are the result of past and current geoscience processes. Emphasis is on how these resources are limited and typically non-renewable, and how their distributions are significantly changing as a result of removal by humans. Examples of uneven distributions of resources as a result of past processes include but are not limited to petroleum (locations of the burial of organic marine sediments and subsequent geologic traps), metal ores (locations of past volcanic and hydrothermal activity associated with subduction zones), and soil (locations of active weathering and/or deposition of rock).
