Students will learn the benefits of reducing waste. To illustrate this concept, they will reuse plastic bottles to create a hanging planter and plant seeds inside their creation.
The Energy Coalition will send you 1 pack of seeds, 1 ball of twine and 1 large pack of potting soil to bring this lesson to life.
Lesson Objective: Students will develop a model to communicate the cause-and-effect relationship of the water-energy nexus and explore examples of how water and energy are interconnected. They will then design a water infrastructure using engineering problem-solving skills.
Suggested Teaching Time: 45 min
NGSS Standards: K-ESS3-3, K-LS1-1, 2-ESS2-2, 2-ESS2-3
