{"product_id":"a-day-in-the-salt-marsh-9780976882350","title":"A Day in the Salt Marsh","description":"Enjoy a day in one of the most dynamic habitats on earth: the salt marsh. Fun-to-read, rhyming verse introduces readers to hourly changes in the marsh as the tide comes and goes. Watch the animals that have adapted to this ever-changing environment as they hunt for food or play in the sun, and learn how the marsh grass survives even when it is covered by saltwater twice a day. An activity on adaptations is included in the \"For Creative Minds\" section. This nonfiction picture book with a cuddle factor and rhyming text includes a 5-page For Creative Minds section in the back of the book and a 54-page cross-curricular Teaching Activity Guide online. A Day in the Salt Marsh is vetted by experts and designed to encourage parental engagement. Its extensive back matter helps teachers with time-saving lesson ideas, provides extensions for science, math, and social studies units, and uses inquiry-based learning to help build critical thinking skills in young readers. The Spanish translation supports ELL and dual-language programs. The interactive ebook reads aloud in both English and Spanish with word highlighting and audio speed control to promote oral language skills, fluency, pronunciation, text engagement, and reading comprehension.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Arbordale Publishing, LLC\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/10\/2007\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780976882350\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 32\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.96lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 10.22h x 8.72w x 0.41d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eReview Citations: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003ci\u003eBooklist\u003c\/i\u003e 08\/01\/2007 pg. 78\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eSchool Library Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 09\/01\/2007 pg. 184\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eScience Books \u0026amp; Films\u003c\/i\u003e 11\/01\/2007 pg. 272\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eScience Books \u0026amp; Films Best Bks\u003c\/i\u003e 01\/01\/2008 pg. 11\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eHornbook Guide to Children\u003c\/i\u003e 01\/01\/2008 pg. 140 - Below Average, With Minor Flaw\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAccelerated Reader Quiz #\/Name: \u003c\/b\u003e116989 \/ Day in the Salt Marsh\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReading Level:\u003c\/b\u003e 5.4 \/ \u003cb\u003eInterest Level:\u003c\/b\u003e Lower Grade \/ \u003cb\u003ePoint Value:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.5\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Kevin Kurtz","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52452297736373,"sku":"9780976882350","price":13.56,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/files\/img_11e074c7-2cd5-4a74-a67a-a8b9e1390015.jpg?v=1776826615","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/a-day-in-the-salt-marsh-9780976882350","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
