Why it is important to be hydrated

LI: To understand why staying hydrated is important for our health

Our Inquiry task was based on investigating the definition of hydration and dehydration, as well as figure out why it is important and very crucial to drink water regularly as part of our health and learning.

Our group started by writing  down the definition of hydration and dehydration and what they mean to us. We wrote the definitions of hydration and dehydration on a google draw.

For our group, hydration means having enough fluid or water ingestion. Dehydration to us means the lack of water intake by a person or living organism. 

On our poster, we began including information about why hydration is important and the benefits of drinking water regularly, as well as why dehydration can be a health hazard and the symptoms of dehydration.

Some of the symptoms are: headaches, feeling dizzy or dry mouth. Not drinking enough water can lead to health hazards that could possibly link to the heart. 

Drinking enough water has a lot of health benefits as well as learning benefits. Being hydrated can also make you energetic for learning new things and going to school.

I enjoyed this activity becuase it was really fun to learn about the importance of hydration and dehydration and why it is important for our health because it is always good to stay hydrated as it helps with your body.
