I love having a blog because I can show what I think and what my opions about different things and it can show what I am learning in my class. I love blogging I also came 3rd in the summer learning journey

This year my team was learning about how to keep my environment happy and clean. I also learned about to not waste water. I am looking on these questions such as, What will you do if you had no water? What will we drink? Is water important? Are we saving water. All those questions got me thinking am I saving my water, and I realised that the answer is no. All of us is not saving water how do I. Because I know all of you guys out there love to take about 1-2 hours of showering you know what that is called WASTING!!

SHOW SUPPORT!!! If you don’t know what that means it means if someone is singing and you know the words sing along. Then you can show everyone that you are supporting each other then it will go into a chain and your whole school will be singing.
