KIDS HAVE ALL THE FUN!

AMWUA member cities promote water conservation with both students and teachers by providing a variety of programs for the classroom. Most of these programs are provided at no charge through Local Water Conservation Offices or the Arizona Department of Water Resources.

Project W.E.T. (Water Education for Teachers) is an interdisciplinary water education program for educators and students, ages 5 to 18. The curriculum covers the properties of water, the water cycle, watersheds, groundwater, water quality, water rights, as well as an understanding of the importance of water to all water users. It is designed to support the Arizona Department of Education standards for Science and other areas.

School assembly programs are sponsored by many of the Valley water conservation programs at no charge. Contact your local water conservation office for information on the availability of these fun assemblies.

Abracadabra Productions Inc.

Abracadabra Productions and Richard the Magical Storyteller explore water conservation for Kindergarten through 5th grade students through the "Arizona Water Saving Idol" magic show.

The activities include background information, reproducible student materials, a glossary, and a list of resources. [more info]
