How Much Water Do I Use?
Objectives:
- Students will learn about their personal water use.
- Students will make connections between themselves and others around the world.
- Upon completion of the activity, students will discuss their personal water use compared to people around the world (see chart attached in lesson plan).
After your students complete the chart, they will set goals, which will help them to use less water. You should encourage your students to implement these strategies every day. If time, students can track water later in the school year for further comparisons.
If you plan for multiple water collections, you may wish to save Chart #1 for comparison.
