Description

Why are rivers and streams important to life on Earth?

Did you know that without rivers, human life might not have developed as it did? We might be a very difference species if it wasn't for rivers, as would the other plants and animals who depends on rivers and streams for food, transportation, water, and power!

In Rivers and Streams! With 25 Science Projects for Kids, readers ages 7 to 10 dive in and discover how rivers change the shape of the land while plants, animals, and humans change the shape of rivers. Through fun facts, engaging content, and essential questions, kids learn about the vital role that rivers and streams have played in human history and explore the ways rivers and streams might affect our future. Science experiments that promote critical thinking and creative problem solving encourage kids to make their own discoveries about the waterways they might pass every day.

Talking about earth science means talking about climate change. How are rivers affected by our changing climate, and what can we do to help rivers and streams stay healthy in their changing environment? Rivers and Streams! encourages kids to think creatively as they search for actionable solutions to the problems faced by today's waterways.

Student-led STEAM projects that promote the use of the scientific method, such as investigating a local watershed, looking for life in water samples, modeling how insects walk on water, and making a water wheel, let kids get their hands wet and their minds working as they make real-life connections to the text. Fun facts, engaging illustrations, links to primary sources, timeline, glossary, and resources make this a terrific introduction to one of earth's most important resources--rivers and streams!
