Create!

Now that you’ve read all 3 texts, think about one thing that you are going to CHANGE about how/what you use water for every day.

Using this, create a google drawing “chain of events” showing how your ‘one thing’ you change, will help to save water.

Eg: I will stop brushing my teeth in the shower → turn off the tap when brushing teeth in the basin → saves hot water → less water needed to refill the hot water cylinder → save money on water bill → SAVES WATER
