Oil in the Wetlands







Students are trying to take oil out of the buckets. They are practicing being "scientists" by having to take oil out of a wetland or ocean after an oil spill. Students learned how messy and hard it is to get the oil out. They had to strategize and work together to figure out how to remove the oil. Students were using the tools to get the oil out but it was a slow process. Ask them about this experience and what oil does to the wildlife and the environment around it.
