Water – importance and usefulness



         Opening Prayer

         First: please tell the children the story Saving the Water.

         Second: please start a dialog with the children.

          You can ask them if they ever saw a river, a lake, a streamlet.

          Please talk to them about the importance of water for life in Earth. Nothing can replace water, since it is the only liquid that maintains nature alive.

          Please remember them tea, coffee or soft drinks don’t have the power to replace water. God created nature to maintain people, plants and animals alive and healthy.

          Please tell the children we need to respect the water by not dropping garbage in the rivers, since there are many fishes and plants that live there. They depend on the water to live, just like us.

          Please talk to the children about the importance of saving water now so that we can have access to it in the future. You can mention, for example, when they are brushing their teeth they can turn off the water until they are ready to rinse. The same can be done with the shower.

         Third - Activity 1: please bring brown paper to class and make a panel, together with the children, about the nature. Rivers, fishes, lakes, trees, plants, flowers and people could be drawn. We would suggest you give it the title: WATER=LIFE, for example.

         Activity 2: please distribute to each child the drawing of the character Anne Louise, to make it easier for the children to relate to the story.
