Bundle of lessons fully planned that are for project based learning. This can be done at the end of each lesson and involves the students planning, conducting and resenting their projects. This worked really well with year 7. All resources for this project are available in this pack. The big question was ‘Do we really need clean water?’ . Each class had a different projects. The projects are as follows: What objects float or sink in water? What makes the best flotation device? How can we separate solids from water? What does water look like under a microscope? What other elements are in tap water? How can we make potable (drinkable) water?
