Air pollution: a problem that we won't stand any more

These days we are talking about air pollution. Things start to become worse as time passes. Factories,cars, motorbikes have created a unbearable environment. What can we do? Is there any solution? We decided to make special masks and see how our life will be when we will be forced to wear masks like these in our everyday life. We didn't like it at all!!!




We also found a slogan to protest against air pollution: "Θέλουμε αέρα, αέρα καθαρό, θέλουμε οξυγόνο και γαλανό ουρανό" (theloume aera, aera katharo, theloume oxigono ke galano ourano). "We want air, clean air, we want oxygen and blue sky"




Then we went and informed the primary school's children about our protest and the effects of air pollution.

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 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.
