- Abstract
The article focuses on a three-seasoned hands-on research for fifth-grade students about chemistry, geology, and biology on local watersheds. Such study involved collection of water samples, observation of topographic features and rocks, animal behavior, as well as in-class discussion and teacher demonstration. The demonstration involves the evaluation of water quality by testing the water samples gathered, understanding watershed maps that were used in the study, and groups discussions about various things observed. As an assessment, students were advised to make a model of such watershed.
