6 Days - Investigative UnitWATER
FLITRATIONAbstract/Overview

• Water Filtration terms
• Background Information
• Water Filtration Webquest
• Design and Construction of Water Filtration Units
• Data will be Tabulated and Graphed

3
Goals

• Construct a model of the water filtering system.
• Test the ability of the water filters to filter
  contaminants out of different solutions.

4
Standards

• Ohio State Standards
• ES 4. Analyze data on the availability of fresh
  water that is essential for life and for most
  industrial and agricultural processes. Describe
  how rivers, lakes and groundwater can be depleted
  or polluted becoming less hospitable to life and
  even becoming unavailable or unsuitable for life.
• Other Ohio State Standards ES2(7), 9, 11,
  12(11) LS3,6(7), 11(11) ST1-4(7), 1,2(11)
  SI2-4(7),1-5(11) SWK1-3(7),1-11(11)
• Kentucky Academic Expectations 2.1 and 2.4
• Kentucky Core Content SC-4.6.4, 4.7.2, 4.7.3,
  4.7.5

• Materials Suggestion
• Explain that groups may want to start gathering
  materials that they could use for their
  filtration system. Tell the students what you
  are willing to supply to them, so there are no
  repeats.
• Filtration Example
• Teachers may want to show the lower grades what
  they are trying to accomplish with the filters in
  the lab at the point. The older grades may want
  to make the lab more inquiry based and not allow
  them see your ideas.

31
Day 3 Experiment/Cooperative Groups

• New vocabulary words 17-24 will greet the
  students as they enter the classroom.
• Show the groups different versions of filtration
  system used in the real world.
• Groups design and diagram their own filters
  systems on paper explain in detail why they chose
  their designs.
• Groundwater Filtration Design Student Sheet.docx

32
Day 4 Experiment/Cooperative Groups

• New vocabulary words 25-32 will greet the
  students as they enter the classroom.
• Water Filtration Lab
• Groups assemble 2 of their filtration systems
  and test(control soil).
• Lab Report Water Filtration.docx

33
Day 5 Experiment/Cooperative Groups

• New vocabulary words 33-39 will greet the
  students as they enter the classroom.
• Water Filtration Lab
• Groups assemble 3 of their filtration systems
  and test (food coloring, glucose, and mystery).

34
