The North Wales Water Authority recognizes that education plays a vital role in the promotion of sound water supply and environmental stewardship and it is in our best interest to provide you, the educators in our community, with material that can assist you in the classroom. We have put together a variety of water experiments that you can use in the classroom. The experiments are broken down by grade level and topic. We will be continually adding new information to this section of our website, so please visit us often. You will need Adobe Acrobat to view the projects.
