Groundwater Investigation
Learning Target: Today we will learn
about ground water.
Today’s Agenda:
•Bell work
•Groundwater Investigation- tasks one and two
Thank you for not chewing gum
Daily Question: What happens to
water in the greenbelt after it
rains? Where does it go? Explain
your reasoning.
Students will be able to analyze how water cycles on the earth and evaluate the significance of this essential but
Sort the items on your table by permeability. Which do you think will be most permeable? Which will be least permeable? WHY?
PREDICT: What order did you place the items in?
Using the pipet, apply 5 drops of water to each substance. Observe what happens.
REVISE: Did you need to re-order your items? If so, what was the final order?
Write your own definition for permeable and impermeable substances and give example of each.

Sand, gravel,
sandstone, soil
Granite, basalt,
clay, quartzite
LAB QUESTION: How does water interact with earth materials? How will it interact with sand and gravel differently?
Observe the two sample materials. Complete the observations column of the table below by describing and sketching the size and shape of the particles of each material.
Predict: Which material do you think water will travel through more quickly? Why? Explain your reasoning.
Use pg. E-59 and E-60 to complete the lab activity. READ ALL DIRECTIONS!
As you wait 5 minutes, begin the analysis questions below. Record your final observations in the chart above.

1. POST-QUESTION: Revise you answer and reasoning. What
happens to water in the greenbelt after it rains? Explain your
reasoning. Summarize how groundwater plays a role.
2. Draw an aquifer. Be sure to include and label the following terms:
3. Groundwater, impermeable rock, permeable rock, aquifer,
precipitation
4. Self-assessment: Can you… explain how groundwater, permeable
rock, impermeable rock, and groundwater interact to form an
aquifer. YES or NO? GIVE YOUR EVIDENCE? What support do you still
need?
5. What additional questions or wonderings you have about
