Each of the eleven major drawings on the poster has much to convey about the relationship between activities in the watershed and water quality. Educators may wish to have their students study each drawing and discuss what they see before choosing one of the three options for each drawing. These three options for each drawing are "What Do You See?" and "What is Really Happening in Pennsylvania?" and "What Can an Educator/Student Do?"

The back of the hard copy of the poster contains information on Pennsylvania's six major watersheds and an activity reprinted from Project Wet. The activity is appropriate for middle school classes.
