Assessment•Performance (4th)• Common (4th) •Science notebooks (4th)•Entrance/ Exit slips (4th)•Best filter debate one power point slide (9th)•Group filter diagram (9th)•Observation sheet/data table (9th)•Questions based off data (9th)•KWOL (9th)

9th Grade ActivityStudents will try and clean dirty water, by selected materials to utilize both physical and chemical changes.

Objectives1.Create a water filter that will clean water based on their knowledge of mixtures2.Identify chemical and physical changes associated with cleaning water3.Use observations and the pH scale to determine the purity of water.

StandardsNature of Matter •Investigate the properties of pure substances and mixturesScience and Technology•Identify a problem or need, propose designs and choose among alternative solutions for the problem. 

Application- investigate the problem of cleaning water

Careers-chemists, environmental and civil engineers, technologists , hydro-geologist

Society- with increasing human population

there is a need for more efficient water treatment

Objectives1.Work cooperatively in groups to come up with a filter design2.Construct a water filter that is functional3.Test the functionality of the device

4th Grade ActivityStudents will design , create , and investigate with a workable water filter that will clean polluated water.

Standards Study properties of matter and physical changes through direct observations

Abstract These lessons are inquiry driven to allow students the ability to use observations to see actual

processes occurring connected to the nature of matter.

ConclusionOnce over, students should have an understanding of chemical and physical changes, and a stronger use of observational skills and establishing conclusions based off of them.

Misconceptions•Students understand rainfall in terms of gravity but do not make the connection of condensation , water cycle. (4th)•Belief that matter is gained or lost as a result of chemical and physical changes (9th/10th) •Mixtures and solutions are chemical changes (9th/10th)

Background •Water cycle (4th)•Ground /surface water (4th)•Kinetic molecular theory of matter (9th)•Phase Changes (9th)•Pure substance/ mixtures (9th)•pH scale (9th)
