Description
This resource is laid out as a web-based tutorial to provide students with information about the use and protection of water sources. This resource is divided into three key lesson components.
Running Dry: Students are introduced to the importance of conserving and protecting their own water supply as well as reflecting on their own water consumption. Students will take quizzes, reflect on water facts, and participate in a personal water survey.
In a Bottle: Students are presented with many of the myths and problems associated with the commercialization and sale of bottled water. Students will: design a marketing label for a new brand of water, review facts about bottled water, be guided through animated facts related to bottled water.
Children and Water: Students are encouraged to learn more about the accessibility of clean drinking water and the discrepancies of access to water between the rich and poor. Students will: write diary extracts based on the character of a child living in Tanzania, play an online game to review ways of ensuring access to clean water for all areas of the world.
