Assign each student an organism to research by having them sign up on our Google Spreadsheet (pull sticks).
Create a blog entry entitled, "Watery Earth Lesson 2.3 - How _______ Use Water." Put your organism's name in the blank.
Using the bulleted lists from Water Earth Lesson 2's blog post to:
Below your paragraph, create a 3-column chart with the following titles: "Humans," "________" (Your Organism's Name in the blank), and "Both."
List at least three ways your organism uses or needs water that is different from humans in the proper columns.
List at least three ways your organism and humans use or need water similarly in the "Both" column.
Insert a "Title" element above the columns entitled, "How Humans and __________ Use and Need Water."
As a final reflection, answer the following questions under your 3-Column Chart:
1. Why is water considered a "Natural Resource?"
2. How is water essential (required) to our survival and the survival of all living things?
