I have decided this year to organise my water bottle groups around the 5 major oceans as I have 5 groups of 6 children. The document is editable. I printed it out in A3 then laminated it and stuck it up in the classroom above the water fountain. Baskets are extremely handy as they can easily be carried outside to PE lessons/sports day etc. by water monitors and keep the classroom tidy. I have attached a photo of the water bottle baskets which I have created using the images from the document (cut out and laminated).
