The activity Mapping my local water catchment asks students to use an online topographic map to view their local catchment area(s) and consider how elevation, vegetation, land use and human activities influence waterways. It provides practice with the science capability ‘Interpret representations’.
These Rivers and Us resources are in a downloadable PDF format. Use them to learn about drinking water and wastewater treatment.
