Global Goal 6

We learned about clean water today and how lucky we are to have easy access to clean drinking water.  The boys all made a choice of which glass of water they would like to drink, they all chose the clean water…..apart from Sean he reached for the dirty water and tried to have a drink!

We had a discussion about what would happen if we let Sean drink the dirty water and the effects it would have on our body.

All boys were successful learners, very engaged and attentive, we then watched a water walk video.  One girl had to walk 8 miles every day to get dirty drinking water.  As a class we measured how many steps it would take us to get a glass of clean drinking water.  We created a graph to compare our steps to the girl in the video.

We also experienced walking ten steps with a bucket on our head.  Some boys clearly did not like but others told us they liked the weight on their head.

ECO Work

The Beech class started their new ECO target yesterday.  We are looking at Global Goals 6 which focuses on keeping our local water cycle clean.   We looked at how the water system works and where water comes from.  then we started an experiment that lets us observe the cycle in action and listened to a song all about the cycle.  We then engaged in a sensory water “play” session where we demonstrated the cycle using different types of water and water-themed objects.  We were very successful leaners as we were able to complete an assessment at the end showing how much we learned!
