Ripply’s Moods
Ripply can quickly change his mood. When people save water, Ripply becomes very happy. When people waste water, Ripply becomes very sad.
Color each picture of Ripply to showhow he feels about the following activities.
Activity #1 When the sidewalks in front of our housebecome dirty, we use a hose to cleanthem off. It is much faster than using abroom.
Activity #2 Everyone in our family takes short showers instead of baths. We even turnthe water off while we soap up!
Activity #3 We run only full loads of clothing in ourwashing machine. We run only a full dishwasher too.
