Activity! Designing a River
The class will design a river from Headwaters to the Mouth/Delta putting as much information from the sheets as possible into your work. The river will be needed on an upcoming assessment. Each group of four or more gets four sheets. Plan the width of the river accordingly. Your section should line up with the group down river and upriver. Only use light colored pencils “everybody” Worth a two class grades (your part, your groups part.) Copyright © 2010 Ryan P. Murphy

These trees are dangerous for boaters and are called “strainers”.
They are dangerous because they can pin and hold you under that water like pasta in a strainer. Copyright © 2010 Ryan P. Murphy
329
If you can’t avoid a strainer try to climb up on top of it, rather than going under it.
It is a nice thing to breathe while you wait for help. Copyright © 2010 Ryan P. Murphy
