Our school did a fundraiser for an organization named Water 1st. Instead of a regular school day, we rotated to different workshop where kids learned about all things water (sustainability, sanitation, resources, accessibility, etc.) It was good to spend a relaxed day with kids. Some of them really surprised me when it came down to the Walk for Water because they took it so seriously! The idea behind it was to raise awareness about how people around the world have to walk as much as 5 hours just to bring back 5 gallons of water to their homes. Students carried water jugs around the track to experience what it was like. For some, this made a big impact.
We also watched this video as a warm up. Just something to think about!
