Classroom Presentations & Activities
Classroom presentations (PDF) and hands-on water activities (PDF) are available to all schools and all grades, kindergarten through college, throughout the Coachella Valley Water District service area. Presentations address California Content Standards and generally focus on canal safety and water conservation but can be tailored to address a specific area of water-related study. Presentations can often be paired with an activity to enhance the overall learning experience.
For presentations, all we require is a place to set up our equipment, power, and a wall or screen to project onto. We will supply all the materials needed for any activity. We also go to after-school and summer programs. If you are interested in a presentation or activity download and submit the signup form (PDF).
