Creek Water to Drinking Water

For the next month, students will be making daily trips to the local creek to gather water.  Students have created a biosand water filter that they are testing out.  It takes 2+ weeks for the biological layer of the filter to become established.  Once established, this layer will clean the bad bacteria that is found in the creek water.  Students have been working hard on this project and have been having fun along the way.
