Celebrate Black Teachers and Students

This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.

My Project

Our Environmental Science students at WCLL are excited to learn about aspects of the environment they we unaware of.

Using the materials listed in this project students will examinefactors that affect water quality and soil quality.

Using water samples collected from the nearby Milwaukee River students will identify chemicals that may be present in the water samples. They will use a sample of soil from a local park to examine pollutants that may be present in it. Students will they track those chemicals to pollutions sources such as vehicles, industries, or other sources.
