Book Description
The information and activities in this resource book enhance children's knowledge and awareness of the components of a saltwater environment, including physical and biological characteristics. Students will discover where oceans and seas are located throughout the world. They will find out what characteristics saltwater habitats have in common, what lives there, and how living things survive. As they explore saltwater organism adaptations, students will discover similarities and differences between living things in saltwater and non-saltwater environments. Activities that emphasize the ecology of plants and animals, food chains, and protection will enable students to relate the structure of a living thing to the functions necessary for its survival. Four transparencies (print books) or PowerPoint slides (eBooks) are included to engage students in discussion and reinforce the concepts presented in the book.

Plastic, Ahoy!
Author: Patricia Newman
Publisher: Millbrook Press
ISBN: 1512457639
Category : Juvenile Nonfiction
Languages : en
Pages : 48
Book Description
Audisee® eBooks with Audio combine professional narration and sentence highlighting to engage reluctant readers! Plastic: it's used to make everything from drink bottles and bags to toys and toothbrushes. But what happens when it ends up where it doesn't belong—like in the Pacific Ocean? How does it affect ocean life? Is it dangerous? And exactly how much is out there? A team of researchers went on a scientific expedition to find out. They explored the Great Pacific Garbage Patch, where millions of pieces of plastic have collected. The plastic has drifted there from rivers, beaches, and ocean traffic all over the world. Most of it has broken down into tiny pieces the size of confetti. For nearly three weeks at sea, researchers gathered bits of plastic and ocean organisms. These samples helped them learn more about the effects of plastic in the ocean. Follow along on the expedition to find out how scientists studied the Garbage Patch—and what alarming discoveries they made.

Kingdoms of Life - Animals (ENHANCED eBook)
Author: Gina Hamilton
Publisher: Lorenz Educational Press
ISBN: 1429116102
Category : Nature
Languages : en
Pages : 96
Book Description
Milliken's Kingdoms of Life series is aligned with national science standards and reflects current teaching practices. Each book includes approximately 50 black and white reproducible pages, 12 full-color transparencies (print books) or PowerPoint slides (eBooks), comprehension questions and lab activities for each unit, an answer key, a glossary of bolded terms, a timeline of biological discovery, a laboratory safety guide, as well as a national standards correlation chart. Animals details the anatomy and behavior of the kingdom with the greatest cellular complexity. It includes both many-celled and single-celled organisms (such as protozoans). Animals differ from plants in having cells without cellulose walls, in lacking chlorophyll and the capacity for photosynthesis, in requiring more complex food materials (as proteins), in being organized to a greater degree of complexity, and in having the capacity for spontaneous movement and rapid motor responses to stimulation.
