This 2-page learning activity, from the Advanced Technology Environmental and Energy Center (ATEEC), focuses on particulate matter in the air humans breathe. The activity is intended to help environmental science, chemistry, or biology students connect real-world problems with math, science, technical, and critical thinking skills. Concept/skill learned (i.e. from K/S Tables) include the following:

• To trap and observe the appearance of particles of solid matter in our air.
• Read and follow lab procedures, complete data forms.
