World Water Day


On March 22, it is World Water Day.  We have talked about the importance of water in our world and come up with some ways to conserve water.  Here are some of our ideas.  See if your family can use some of our ideas to conserve water or come up with more ideas to share with the class!

Turn water off when you are not using it
Take a shower instead of a bath
Not to much water in your bath
Don’t wash clean clothes
Re-use your towels
Don’t bath everyday if not needed
Add ice to water to cool it down instead of letting the tap run
Put water in the fridge to keep cold
