The students will learn about how rain gardens work from building a model, to learning about its benefits, and learning about the plants and animals that help make them work. Students will also explore and simulate how rain gardens help filter out pollutes brought from parking lot and roof run off and how we can best collect the water into rain gardens instead of letting it go into the sewer system. The safety issues addressed will be proper Internet safety while researching and possibly eye protection while construct a model rain garden. My formative assessments will be questioning to activate prior knowledge as well as monitoring notebooking through out the lesson. The summative assessment will be a more traditional multiple choice & constructed response test. I chose this topic because of a grant my school received from Burns and McDonnell to make environmental improvements that include 3 rain gardens around our campus. I feel like its important to teach our students to think more “green” and we are fortunate to have rain gardens on campus so we should take advantage of teaching them how to better use the rain water.
