Water Matters

Today we had a special visitor, Mrs. O'Hare, from the USC Upstate Watershed Ecology Center.   She taught the students about matter, its phases, changes in matter, and water pollution.  The students enjoyed becoming....

             SOLIDS

             LIQUIDS

     and GASES!

They sorted pictures into the three states of matter.

Lastly they created an oily ocean.  They experimented with feathers to see how oil spills affected ducks.   Then they tried to clean the "ocean" with a variety of tools.
