Grade 5 Unit of Inquiry Site

Mr.T  //  For Unit Two,

We're inquiring into how unequal or irresponsible distribution or sharing of finite natural resources can lead to conflict, and how we can resolve and manage conflict.

We need to understand first of all how all resources and humans are all connected, what the different perspectives are about sharing, and how we can be responsible for one another.

Thanks for sharing your ideas, perspectives, and new understanding!

clean Water

Posted by email 
More than 70% of the world is covered with water, but poor people can
only have one bucket of water each day(2.6 gallons)! Bad water... Every day 14,000 people die because the water they use
contains dangerous chemicals or untreated sewage. It is sad that there are
14,000 people dying every day.....

I think this book was a good resource but it did not have good information
about the lack of water. it was intresting and had information about other
topics but not really any about having no water.
