Mrs. Robin's 6th grade recently started a unit on Human Impacts on the environment. As a part of the unit we learned about offshore drilling and how oil spills can happen. Students then conducted a STEM activity about cleaning up after oil spills occur. Their mission was to clean oil off of bird feathers and remove the oil from the water.
