Water, Water Everywhere - is one of the TeachersFirst Help! I lost my media/library specialist collection found here. This article features topics and resources that explain how little fresh water there is in the world. The Introduction and Background Knowledge give facts about fresh water and explain the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) for accessible, clean water. The Activities section suggests several books to read that range from ages PreK to grade 12, with seven videos from which to choose. One activity suggests students practice walking with jugs of water balancing on their heads. Another activity is to simulate cleaning up bird feathers after an oil spill. Additional resources and activities are suggested in the Extensions section.
tag(s): pollution (49), sustainability (42), water (101)
In the Classroom
Include books from this list on your recommended books list to share with students. Engage students further by completing the activity about walking with a water container on their heads. Use Flip, reviewed here to have students relate how it felt to balance and carry the water and how they could make getting water easier for the community. Ask students to listen to and comment on other classmates' descriptions and ideas. Possibly work with the physical education teacher to teach students how to balance a jug on their head and walk at the same time.You must be registered and logged in to add items to your favorites.

My Plate Match is an interactive game for students to learn all about nutrition and healthy eating. Students will learn all about the food groups by dragging and dropping the food items to the appropriate section of their plate. Not only will they learn about the food groups, but they will also learn how to stay active for 60 minutes per day.

In the Classroom
Use this interactive as an anticipatory set or "activator" to introduce a unit or lesson about nutrition on a projector or interactive whiteboard. Discuss not only the colors of the food groups but the portions on the plates. Make a shortcut to this site on classroom computers and use it as a center. Use Padlet, reviewed here, to enhance learning by having students brainstorm a list of activities, games, and sports they would suggest to be active 60 minutes per day. With Padlet you can create columns for the different types of activities. Post a link on your class website for parents and students to use at home.Add your comments below (available only to members) | Become a Member
