Learn: Fun for Educators

Water Health Educator is excited to launch our newest "Learn" pages, including this free resource for teachers for "go to" lesson plans and activities to use in the classroom, in homeschool, in camps or assemblies. Need a Water Health Educator staff member to help implement the lessons? Just ask. Many of our college students are interested in continuing their outreach work in health knowledge sharing.

Most lesson plans will be a click-n-print/use PDF. If you need a Word doc, please contact us (it's easier to click on the hyperlinks), otherwise, when referred to other websites, copy and paste URL into your browser. Please check periodically for new lesson plans and activities!

Please check out the Facebook Page "George Mason University Patriots for Pure Water" to check out all of the latest workshops and education outreach by our University students! https://www.facebook.com/pages/George-Mason-University-Patriots-for-Pure-Water/174428269242774?fref=ts
