Aquatic Habitats: Exploring Desktop Ponds

This book is an excellent resource. Everything is laid out in so that it doesn't take a lot of time to do a lesson plan. The activities are excellent for grades 3 and 4. The practice with observing, recording, and making predictions alone makes this book valuable.The lessons in life cycles, habitat, and animal adaptations are excellent for any teacher. Easy for teachers who do not have a background in science to teach fresh water ecology.
