Water Use

Water! This has been our lesson focus for the last 10 weeks in our Enviro WAI unit.

We have learnt: 

* Water is EVERYWHERE - in our homes, schools, and all around us in nature (especially in Auckland!)
 
* Water is ESSENTIAL for life.

* Water has many uses; keeping us clean and healthy, for religious and cultural ceremonies and its HEAPS of fun to play in, on or by! 

* Water is often polluted. 

* Water is in short supply, we have a water shortage in Auckland and around the water there is not enough fresh water for everyone.

Here's some pictures of us measuring out the amount of fresh water in the world; 1 DROP out of 1000ml!
