The Mississippi River Activity
Guide would be good for any district located on any river.
Wetlands, migratory pathways, wildlife and shoreline observations are not
unique to life along the Mississippi River.

The Mississippi River Guide
is impressive. The student
workbook is chock full of facts, enrichment activities, and it's
entertaining. I read it all in one sitting just for the information it
contained!
--District Social Studies Curriculum Advisor, Sparta, Wisconsin
Our teachers love the Activity Guide
because the concepts have all been
digested for them. They can open the package and teach. It's easy for
teachers in the lower grades to interpret to their students. The writing
is perfect for my 10 year olds. I like it because it doesn't talk down to
them. Older kids, through high school, can work directly from the resource
books.
