Water on Wheels (WOW)
Location: ERIC parking lot
Water on Wheels (WOW) is a mobile learning experience focused on the science of water. Why water? Because water is essential for life.
The WOW is a teaching tool that allows schools to increase student knowledge about the water cycle and its impact on daily life. Instead of taking an off-site field trip, the WOW is a field trip that comes to your school at a fraction of the cost and time, in the form of a 24' trailer that is a mini-museum.
Inside the WOW, educational displays are colorful, interactive, and visually appealing. Because the source of tap water for the Mid-South is groundwater, one important display in the WOW spotlights the Memphis aquifer system, a vast underground resource with some of the cleanest water on Earth.
