Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

Welcome to our exciting project, "Water Warriors!" At PS 111 Seton Falls, we are going to explore why water is so important for our lives and our community. Water is everywhere around us, but do we really understand why it’s so special? Let’s dive in and become Water Warriors to learn all about it!

Goals

- Understand why water is essential for life.

- Learn how water is used in our daily activities.

- Discover where our water comes from.

- Find out ways to save and protect our water.

As part of our project, our scholars will learn about where our water comes from, including rivers, lakes, and even the rain! We will conduct fun experiments to see how water moves and changes. For example, we’ll watch how water turns into ice and then melts back into liquid.Our goal is for our scholars to understand why it’s important to save water and how we can do it.

Final Project

Each student will create a “Water Warrior” booklet. This booklet will include:

- Drawings and descriptions of how they use water.

- Pictures of water sources.

- Notes and findings from our experiments.

- Tips on saving water.

At the end of our project, we will have a Water Warriors celebration! Students will share their booklets with classmates, families, and the school community. We will hang our water posters around the school to teach others about the importance of water.

Please help us become Water Warriors!
