Central Idea- Water is essential for life and is a limited resource for many.
Key Concepts- Form, Changes, Responsibility
Related Concepts- Systems and Community

We see students becoming responsible and aware about the limited resource 'water'. They understood that they should not waste water and then they took various actions like checking the toilets for leaking, using water wisely, reducing the use of plastic as it leads to water pollution and degradation of aquatic life.
As a part of actions, they also took a pledge to save this precious resource.

We see the students comparing the life of rural and urban areas and how blessed they are in terms of having all the facilities; however, they also know the effects of human activities that are harmful to the environment. Due to this, students realized the importance of being a responsible citizen and how they can contribute as an individual to help save the environment and practice the 6 R's of sustainability.
