Doing The LaundryPurpose:

Students will compare the laundry methods of the 1800s to modern methods. They will be able to see the differences in both the amount and the nature of work that needed to be done to do just one load of laundry.

Key Messages:We can conserve water by thinking about the

way in which we do laundryWe forget about all the work that it takes to

get the water into our homes prior to our use

Practice your two Engaging Questions

needed – be aware!

How do I know which activity centre I’ll be leading?Who will I be working with?

How do I prepare before festival day?

Your teacher will guide you through the process of assigning activity centres and partners.

Your teacher will be giving you time to work with your partners and prepare for your activity centre, prior to festival day. Review all the online

resources when preparing

At any given time, you may be presenting your activity, doing crowd control, or directing groups; your flexibility is greatly appreciated
