Animals

There are many different animal classes. Each class of animals has traits which are
specific to their class. See if you can match the animal with the class in which it
belongs. Check the glossary if you need help.

Where Did The Water Go?

Do you ever wonder where your drinking, cooking and bathing water comes from? Even more so, where
does it go after it leaves your eyesight and heads down the drain? Drinking, bathing and even sewer water
begins an endless journey back to the waste water treatment plant where it gets recycled.

Where does the water treatment facility get its water? Rivers and other bodies of water make up the water
distributed by the plant to its customers. Once the water leaves your home, it undergoes several procedures
which make it clean and safe to use again.

Four-year-old Fran just finished taking a bath. Fran sees the water go down the drain but
doesn't know where it goes. Can you help Fran find out where her bathwater goes?
