Questions for further discussion...
What important problem in Flint is related to Heavy Metals?
How does the topic of "Heavy Metals" connect to our studies of the Elements?
READ more about heavy metals at the wikipedia page and look at the locations of toxic heavy metals on the periodic table (below).
WRITE a paragraph in your Science Notebook relating how the understanding of heavy metals in our AOW is linked to the water problems in Flint and to our studies of the periodic table.  Your paragraph should have a Topic Sentence, 3 details, and a Sentence of Significance at the end.
  • UNDERLINE your topic sentence
  • NUMBER each detail sentence
  • STAR the sentence of significance
