Filtration Station
Students will become engineers and design a water purification system. They will review the engineering design process as they use it during their investigation.
The Energy Coalition will send you plastic cups, measuring cup, drinking water test strips, coffee filters, rubber bands, sand, gravel, and activated charcoal to bring this lesson to life.
