Hi Marisol. This is a great activity. I love the pictures and the listening exercise is great for an English class.
I noticed in my house that the water takes long to get hot when I am going to have a shower. I estimate that it takes about 4 minutes to heat up. This must be between 20 and 30 litres of water wasted. So I will now collect it in a bucket to water the plants.
Regards, Filo.
