The kids thought this was an interesting topic and hadn't realised how much water households waste on a daily basis.

What a fantastic kit! The kiddos in my class enjoyed learning about the ways they could save water. Their favourite tip was tap off when brushing teeth--a small change that makes a difference

We really enjoyed the kit. Great resource. We wished we had it in term 3 rather than leaving it for term 4. This had loads of potential that we did not fully utilise due to term 4 time restrictions with prize giving, assessment etc. What we did was greatly received by our students. Thank you.

I really struggled to link this to the curricuum and it seemed a little too time intensive for the outcomes I expected

What was the impact of the daily stamping practice in your classroom and which water benchmark did your students find most fascinating? students like stamping things, having a visual interactive display in the classroom is always beneficial for motivation. Any talk about toilets and flushing was always funny.
How have your students' perceptions of water conservation changed since using the resource and did it foster a sense of responsibility and awareness in your classroom? somewhat, they didn't have high consumption prior as we are a rural community. I would have liked to delve into corporate use a bit more.

I really liked the concept of this kit and thought that the posters and activities were cool, but as it wasn't all reusable I had 3/4 of my class (work in a ILE) miss out as the resources were damaged.

What was the impact of the daily stamping practice in your classroom and which water benchmark did your students find most fascinating? Learners were eager to have their stamp added to show the total water saved by our class. Learners would call each other out, if the didn't quite meet the challenge set..
How have your students' perceptions of water conservation changed since using the resource and did it foster a sense of responsibility and awareness in your classroom? Yes, I often heard them reminding each other about turning the tap off. Or "stop wasting it" when someone else was using the drinking fountain outside our class.

As we embarked on our learning journey, we quickly realised we had a lot we could do to help save water. Especially by just taking shorter showers! Another aspect we strived to do better in was turning off the tap while washing our hands, some of us found this very tricky. We were happy with our school dining hall, which encouraged us to scrap excess food into bins for the pigs!
