EnviroScape has been such a hit since I began using it 20 years ago!

Personally, I am so excited to be able to use this model with the students of Allentown, PA, because I know that most of our student population is not really sure where their drinking water is coming from and where it goes to. I have had such success using the traditional model and I know this will really enrich their learning experience! EnviroScape has been such a hit since I began using it 20 years ago!

The Drinking Water/Wastewater Enviroscape model is a fabulous tool for teaching about how water cycles through the community and flows to the next community. Students love lifting the roads to see the water and wastewater pipes leading to/from their homes and businesses. It is really an eye-opener for students and adults alike.
