design it clean
The Design it Clean project was based on the concept of students understanding what makes water "Clean" and how difficult it is for people in under developed countries to obtain clean water. As students, we gathered in groups and designed a cheap, durable, and portable filter that could be used to filter out contaminants. Such contaminants like, ammonia, viruses, bacteria, and to clean out silt.
The Colorado River Delta
In Physics, I did a focused study on the Colorado River Delta for our water studies. I was focusing on just giving the general background information on this topic and how the ecosystem of the area was affected by the extreme drought that occurred there.

The Water Rocket Project
In this project, we had to construct a functioning rocket out of bottles of any size. This project was designed to teach us about the physics that come into play when a rocket is launched.
