Type Matching

Students match four pollution types-air, water, soil, and noise pollution-with their corresponding sources or effects. This activity requires careful reading and understanding of how pollutants affect environments and human health. By matching each type to the correct cause or consequence, students strengthen their analytical and classification skills. The extra challenge question prompts them to choose one pollution type and explain its impact more deeply, reinforcing structured writing and environmental awareness.
