Students observe the effects of limestone on the acidity of water. Some areas of the nation have a lot of limestone in lake bottoms and in soil, which helps neutralize the effects of acid rain. Students see this effect first hand.

Learners perform an experiment that demonstrates acid rain. The chemical effect of acids on metals may take at least five days for the human eye to see, even though the reaction starts as soon as the acid contacts the metal.

Students identify and analyze how acid rain can affect the environment. They then explain how air, water, and pollution interact and conduct pH tests to find acidity levels in water. Finally, students become "Pollution Watch Reporters"...

Third graders use metric measuring for model and actual plan in designing a roof garden. They photograph the process, record results in a journal, and plant seedlings in small containers. Finally, 3rd graders complete an acid rain...

Students observe the effects of acid rain on plants through experimentation and research. Students research types of crops in their area. Students work in small groups to complete the experiments given, as well as write a report and...

Young scholars investigate the impact of local industries and other activities within a twenty mile radius of their school that may contribute to acid rain in their area. Students use their findings to create public information posters...

Students examine the effects of acid rain on plants. They observe the growth of seeds and the health of different plants for a month. They share their findings with the community.

Fifth graders participate in an experiment in which they examine the effects of acid rain on buildings. They discover how huge a problem acid rain is not only to structures but to the environment. They gather pictures of acid rain to...

Students examine the pH level of rain water in their local community. They locate each location on a map. They analyze the data and draw conclusions.

Students participate in an experiment to become aware of the harmful effects of an acidic solution -- acid rain.

Students set up an experiment and make observations of the effect of acid rain.

In this biology lab, students will investigate whether acid/acid rain affects the germination of seeds through the use of observation, experimentation, data analysis, oral presentations, and scientific writing.

Geology and chemistry of acid rain effects. Lots of building and monument pictures showing acid rain damage. Be sure to follow the "next" link at bottom of each page.

Learn about acid rain and the devasting effects it has on the U.S., particularly on our nation's capital and monuments.

Try this at-home science experiment to learn about chemical erosion and how it works.
