Removing Oil From Water
by Vickie Campbell
In this lesson, students will understand the impact of oil spills in the ocean. They will work cooperatively to come up with solutions and materials to clean up a simulated oil spill. Students will also hypothesize, manipulate, measure, and calculate how much oil can successfully be removed using predicted materials.
