Clean Ocean Action World Water Day Celebration at Jenkinson's Aquarium
Elementary / Math / Ratios and Proportions
World Water Day is a day of recognition set aside by the United Nations to emphasize the importance of clean water in our world. Here at Clean Ocean Action, we planned a World Water Day Extravaganza where we ask teachers to plan a lesson about our waterways and then watch our program. We are recommending a few videos (one for each grade level) to initiate and invigorate a conversation in your classrooms about the impact humans have on water quality. Visit cleanoceanaction.org for information on these videos. On World Water Day we visited Jenkinson's Aquarium and took a tour of their facilities. We met amazing creatures, interviewed aquarium staff, and addressed some questions from students. We are sure that students will have many question and comments on the topic after the lesson, so please feel free to email us at [email protected].
