Provided by the Louisiana Department of Agriculture and Forestry, the Project WOW curriculum enables students to explore physical, chemical, and environmental properties of wetlands. This kit is for the Wetland in a Pan activity, available on pages 212-214 in the Project WOW book or downloadable as a pdf below. The full Project WOW curricula book is available in our library, or through attending a Project WOW workshop through STEM Library Lab.

This project would be a great pair to our "Steam Table kits," which explore erosion.
