Steffan Soule's The Magic of Our Water shows students:
The amount of drinkable water is very small compared
to the total amount of water on earth.
We need to conserve our water.
We need to preserve our water.
Water picks up contamination as it moves over and
through the earth.
Potable water flows underground in aquifers, and what
we do above the ground effects the quality of the water
under the ground.

Students see visible magic effects with water during
which water magically:
disappears during an explanation of the water cycle;
changes from dark and polluted to clear and drinkable;
grows in volume while the contamination problem is
revealed;
flows invisibly past what appear to be solid barriers
into a container representing "the aquifer";
pumps through a student in order to "clean it". |
