In this lesson students will learn some of the history of our watershed and how water affected it. They will use the interactive timeline to fill in the scavenger hunt and learn about the Upper Alameda Creek Watershed. From the Ohlone natives to the 220,000 people who live here now, the availability of water has shaped the history of this place we call home.
