In "Engineering Is Elementary," join Salilia as she embarks on an inspiring adventure to save a turtle from the polluted Ganges River. This engaging project, designed for middle elementary grades (ages 7-10), allows students to craft their own water filters using materials like sand, coffee filters, and cheesecloth. Through creativity and scientific observation, students learn the importance of clean water and environmental stewardship. By experimenting with different filtration methods, they discover how to make the clearest water possible, fostering a personal connection to nature and wildlife.

  1. Engineering Is Elementary By: Janie Burkhalter & Chandler Janis

  2. Introducing Cleaner water for a cleaner tomorrow

  3. Overview • Salilia loves the river • She notices a turtle that she wants to take home • The Ganges river is dirty. And she wants to help save the turtle and clean the river • She saves the turtle by keeping it in a filtered tank she makes herself.

  4. Filtering Water This project is best designed for middle elementary grades. The students can be as creative as they need to be. This also relates to this age group of 7-10 because a majority of these students love animals and this creates a personal interest in the project.

  5. Different Filters From left to right the water was filtered with: coffee filter, cheesecloth, and sand.

  6. This is the final filter we designed. We took the observations we made with the individual materials. We concluded the strongest filter would include all the materials.

  7. The picture above shows the water after we have used the filters. We saw the final water was the clearest, with little to no large objects.

  8. Snapshots Final Water Filter FINAL FILTER: We used the 3 materials present to create the strongest filter. The first layer was sand, then the coffee filer, and last the cheesecloth. This was the cleanest water we have filtered.
