Life Without Water

We look at how people cope without easy access to water.

 

Where are the major dry deserts of the world?

​

We look at two cultures, the Maasai and the San people, comparing their lifestyles and how they prioritise resources when no running water is available.

​

We look at the animals important to them and how people and animals have adapted throughout evolution. 

​

This session is built around photos and video clips of my time spent with each people highlighting their customs and way of life that is easily affected by severe weather.  I have many artefacts for children to handle.

​

This session pairs well with 'Life NEVER without Water'.

​

 

"I found all of your artefacts both amazing and interesting. I also liked dressing up as a Maasai woman and wearing a red cloth. My favourite part was holding the ostrich egg"

From  Maria, Yr 4
