Are you looking for a fun way for students to explore water pollution? In this adapted version of Freddie Fish, students will pour various "pollutants" (household kitchen items representing toxins) in Freddie's river and discuss how he feels. It's the perfect way to get your students understanding pollution!
This Product Includes:
✓ Interactive pollution experiment
With This Product You'll Get:
✓ Preparation instructions
✓ Story cards
✓ Answer recording sheet
✓ Earth Day activity
How You Can Use This Product:
✓ You can read the cards off or provide students with cards to read.
✓ Then, students will brainstorm what could be done instead that would better benefit Freddie and his environment.
✓ Finally, students will create a display for Earth Day about how the earth is important and how they can better care for it. (Included is also a display labeled "Earth Care" in case you are doing this pollution exploration when it is not Earth Day.)
✓ Small groups
✓ Whole group

Final Notes:
While I recommend printing in color and laminating materials for future use, it is not necessary. These materials print just fine in grayscale.
