The Water Source books, now available in K-2, 3-5, 6-8, 9-12 and a Spanish Version (3-5 grades),
are a comprehensive
guide for use by teachers and water quality professionals. The activities teach youth through experimental
learning methods the importance of preserving and enhancing water resources. Chapters on drinking water, wastewater
treatment, groundwater, surface water, and wetlands offer a wide variety of hands-on activities that teach about virtually
any water quality or quantity issue. The inter-disciplinary books are designed to supplement existing curriculum and
are correlated with U.S. curriculum standards.
