Watershed Demonstration Kit
EMWP brings the watershed to your classroom! In addition to an in-depth PowerPoint presentation about watersheds and Hawaiian rainforest ecology, our classroom presentations may include a watershed building activity.
If you are interested in replicating this watershed demonstration kit for yourself, click here to download instructions and materials list. You will need Acrobat Reader.
This demonstration was adapted by curricular materials developed by the San Luis Obispo County, CA 4-H Youth Development Program.
