Linda Sue Park shares that learning about Salva Dut and his life inspired her to write A Long Walk to Water. She shares that he's created an "organization that drills water wells in southern Sudan for villages where there has never been a supply of clean water". A clean water supply may be something you've never had to worry about before. Think about all the ways that you use water throughout the day. In many places, one can turn the hand on a faucet and clean water seems to magically appear! It's not magic though. The water doesn't magically appear out of thin air (or cylinder pipes!). Research how you get your water. Where does it come from? And how would your life be different if clean water wasn't readily available to you? Discuss this as a class and write a class response below. Make sure to end your comment with your grade level and the location of your class! We want to learn about the world, so knowing where you're communicating from is important.
Recommendation/Option: Create a class response to share where your water comes from. Collaborate to write your class response below in the comments. Then, allow your students to individually share their response via this Flipgrid (Code 3cddb7). Have your students watch and react to the videos submitted by others around the world, too! My class will be responding in both sections on Monday. Note: I'm monitoring the Flipgrid. Videos will be viewable once approved.
