Publication date: unknown
Cost: Free to teachers

Designed for the K-5 audience, the activities are divided into 4 units: the water cycle, water properties, water ecosystem, and water use by humans. A few activities draw relationships between water transport and human physiological functions, e.g., nutrient transport per blood. Some activities may be too advanced for primary grades and will have to be adapted. Authors include a list of "Interdisciplinary Ideas" for the educator.
