Often, instructional materials incorrectly teach the water cycle<\/a>, but Keeping Water Renewable<\/a> offers accurate explanations and depictions. By combining hands-on projects and interactive components, this robust, blended lesson provides a thorough introduction to the water cycle and how to keep a resilient balance between human activities and natural systems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Designed for middle school and high school students, the Keeping Water Renewable<\/a> lesson follows the \u201c5E\u201d model of learning (engage, explore, explain, elaborate, and evaluate). The NC Water Resources Research Institute, North Carolina Sea Grant, and the North Carolina Department of Environmental Quality developed this lesson in partnership with PBS NC. In early 2023, the team will be offering district-wide, hands-on presentations (both virtual and in-person) to train teachers, and you can learn more about the training sessions here<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
