"Waterman" video makes a splash with teachers and students

BATON ROUGE- The Louisiana Office of Conservation has just recently released a short educational film entitled “Waterman” at a special premiere event at Scotlandville Pre-Engineering Magnet Academy in Baton Rouge.

The film is a complement to the office's "Water-Wise in BR” educational curriculum that features earth and environmental science lesson plans – along with math and social studies components–for grades 5-11. The video focuses on the adventures of three young Baton Rougeans as they learn about groundwater and water resources in the Capital City with the help of Waterman at his H20 HQ.

Teachers and students across the state will find the adventures of this superhero- WATERMAN and his friends to be fun and informative. Free copies of a “Waterman” DVD are available from the DNR Office of Conservation. The film is also available at http://waterwise.dnr.la.gov.
