I have the paperwork to apply for a grant of up to $500 to teach water related topics. I am an elementary science enrichment teacher, which means I see every class in my school one time per week. I do a HUGE unit on water with my 2nd graders and would LOVE to apply for this grant. I'm looking for any suggestions on good resources, kits, activities, etc. that I could put into my grant proposal. Any suggestions would be much appreciated - with links to pages, descriptions, etc. would be even better!!! This is only the 2nd year of this program so I'm still collecting ideas and materials, so nothing will be considered too small or insignificant! :-)

I think a good starting point would be any of the science equipment companies to see what books and kits they have available. Also check with your local natural resources agency or conservation department to see what they might have.

I agree with Carolyn. I took Project Wet several years ago. It has some good hands-on projects/activities that range from 2nd to 6th grade.
