Round Robin

The round robin activity was a great way to introduce the freshwater unit to our class. One topic we had was negatives and positives of living near any body of water. Some of the positives were transportation, swimming, being able to learn about the underwater life, and the sounds of the waves actually calms the mind. Some negatives were storms, water damage to homes, and erosion of the coast.

Ways to conserve our freshwater resources is by turning off the sink when you brush your teeth, taking shorter showers, and avoiding baths. These are all simple things that anyone can do no matter your age.

Some uses of freshwater are irrigation, hydroelectric power, drinking, bathing, and recreation. Water is a very versatile resource and it will always be around in some form or fashion.
