Goal 14: Life Below Water

Natalie, Devyn & Alexis

We chose SDG #14, Life Below Water. We chose this because we thought it was really sad how because of humans, sea animals were dying from all of the pollution in the ocean. So, we decided to do something about it. We created a board game to educate others about what’s going on in our oceans. We’re planning to show it to the grade 2s, and later leave it in the shared space for other grades to play later.

Amanda and Amina created an engaging puppet show to teach people about some issues facing the ocean and all its inhabitants: "The action we wanted to take was to bring awareness to life below water. We decided on creating a video with a few key facts from our original project. We hope that this video has encouraged you to make a difference in your life. You can pick up after yourselves, pick up your own garbage, and do what you can, to be environmentally friendly. Thank you!"

Allison used her skills as a composer to create this beautiful piece of music, titled "Ocean Song": "The topic I chose is life below water, which I think is very important. I was unsure of how to present my work, but then I remembered how much I love to write music, and how I’ve always had a passion for it! So that’s exactly what I did, representing my feelings about life below water through music."

Anaïs is working on a website to teach people about ocean issues: "Hello! I am creating a website to inform people on important matters that are impacting the oceans. On my website there will be a section on what is currently affecting the oceans and how to help. There will be links to people who are fighting against the issue, petitions, and also things that you can stop or start doing."
