HOW TO BEHAVE BY THE SEA?

As our partners, we also made a poster which tell us how to behave by the sea. We noticed that if we behave correctly at the beach, we will save a sea as well.

So have a look at our poster.
And there is a short "explanation movie". Enjoy:)

Where would you rather live?





This is a polluted sea. The rubbish here makes it a bad place for sea creatures and plants to live.















This sea is clean. Sea creatures and plants grow and live happily here. Look - Poseidon has chosen to live here!









Making our aquariums

We had lots of fun making our sea aquariums.


We used shoe boxes for the aquariums.



We made sea creatures that might live there.



We made seaweed and coral too.



We added shells.

Sea Aquariums

Lots of fish and shells.






Seaweed and happy sea creatures.












Beautiful coral.

Sea Posters

After we had looked and discussed why sea animals and plants are in danger, the children designed their own posters to tell people about how to look after our seas.

Good sea, Bad Sea!

We have talked about what a good sea and a bad sea might look like. We thought about polllution of the seas and rivers and how that might happen. What would happen to the animals and plants in a polluted sea or river? The children drew their ideas, one half showing a good sea and the other half showing a bad sea.

Ideas for water economy!

1. Water with a can not a hose
2. We don't leave the tap open when we don't use it
3. Wash the car or the balcony with a bucket not a hose
4. We prefer taking a shower than a bubble bath
5. We wash fruits and vegetables in a dishpan
6. We take care so as not to have water leaks
7. We use ecological household appliancesut
8.We don't pollute drinkable water springs

Mission accomplished: dive to the bottom of the sea!

These days we talk a lot about sea pollution, we saw photos,videos, books and all these make us really sad. We decided to make a dive in a clean and in a polluted sea and talk about the differences. Then we decided to make two aquariums, a clean and a dirty one.In the dirty one, there was an accident. An oil tanker collided on a rock and created an oil slick. Fish and monk seals are dying,everything is polluted. While a sea turtle and an octapus have been caught in a fish net. People have thrown rubbish, bottles,papers etc....In the clean one, all the sea creatures are happy!Fish swim all around,dolphins make dives,corals are smiling,sea turtles and star-fish live hapilly!That's the sea we want to have!That's the sea we will try to have!Let's give breath and life to sea!!

What can you find at the bottom of the sea?

Today we took part in a submarine mission to meet some sea species and check the condition of the sea bottom. You would not believe what we have seen in there!
In some part of the sea there were beautiful fish and corals - the best place for living for our turtle - Amphitrite. In the other part of the sea there was nothing to admire apart from dead animals and people rubbish!!!
After going back from the sea bottom we made a special display to show you everything what we have seen today. Look.
ecological disaster

home for Amphitrite

fish and corals We were working very hard, especially during discussion about the reason of ecological disaster, but everything changed into the real pride when we saw the result...

Here you can see Weronika working with plasticine to make corals and plants...

And there is the whole team for the task. As you can see there is only a dozen of us, all other friends are recovering from the cold nowadays! Greetings for them!

Hugs for you all!
