About This Lesson
Access Free Lesson Plan Here: Clean Water and Sanitation
In this lesson, students further their knowledge of redox titrations while examining the pressures that contamination and climate change put on access to clean water.
Step 1 - Inquire: Students observe a field scientist testing the dissolved oxygen content of the Hudson River and generate questions.
Step 2 - Investigate: Students apply the Winkler Method as a tool for assessing the health of bodies of water and identify the stresses placed on water sources by climate change.
Step 3 - Inspire: Students explore UN Sustainable Development Goal #6 and consider what steps they can take to protect the drinking water in their communities.
Learning Outcomes
- Students will be able to explain the link between climate change and access to clean water.
- Students will be able to use the Winkler Method to evaluate biochemical oxygen demand (BOD).
- Students will be able to identify concrete steps they can take to protect access to water.
