Happy World Ocean Day!

Sophi and I found an article that talked about giving out blue marbles to people that show kindness in water conservation. A person would receive a blue marble and then pass it on within 24 hours to someone else showing water kindness. Sophi decided to do something similar to promote World Ocean Day (June 8th). (Knowing that 7-year-olds are going to want to keep their marble), Sophi gave her classmates and friends 2 marbles each with a water conservation tip card that she wrote. Each child could keep one marble and pass one on to spread the word about the importance of water conservation!

Sophi's Water Tips:
1. Don't Waste Water. Turn off the water when you brush your teeth or do the dishes.
2. Don't Litter. Garbage goes into the sewers and then into our rivers, lakes and oceans.
3. Use Cold Water. It takes less energy than hot.
