In this learning activity students investigate the impacts of human actions on the quality of air and water and the ways in which the quality of air and water has an impact on living things, as well as the idea that living things need air and water to survive.
To do this, students will watch a video, complete a RAN chart, conduct a safety review, and participate in an oil spill activity.
