The AP Environmental Science Water Quality Assessment Module includes an extensive curriculum that uses the exploration of the Water Quality Index to teach students STEM-based skills. Classroom and field activities satisfy Section VI (Water Pollution) of the AP Environmental Topics Outline.
The Lesson Plans provided are to help organize an existing curriculum, allowing the teacher to spend more time on hands-on activities that meet key classroom learning objectives and improve student achievement. The Lesson Plans will aid the teacher in integrating LaMotte test kits and equipment into classroom activities that meet National Science Education Standards. Note: These lesson plans are designed to be used with LaMotte kits.
