Students in Environmental Science will learn about the fundamentals of ecology: rocks, minerals, and soil; biomes; surface water and oceans; and earth and energy resources and human impact on these resources.
Each unit contains at least one lab activity requiring various materials. The materials for the labs are common items that are most likely already in your kitchen or medicine cabinet (or available at the grocery store).
