Working in teams, fifth graders are learning that pollution can be found in many places as well as come from many different sources. Pollution can be found in the air, water, and soil. It can also be created from natural or artificial sources. Natural sources of pollution come from nature, while artificial sources are human-made.
Fifth graders are also working on their communication skills. Each team has designated "listeners" and "talkers." They spent time visiting other groups to learn about the sources of pollution they identified in a fictitious community. They then swapped out with team members to switch roles.
