Summary |
"This unit introduces students to a serious problem--the fictional town of Hopewell's prized freshwater mussel population is dying out, and the town's leading citizens cannot figure out why. Your students will take charge of the situation as they join a task force dedicated to solving the problem ... Students will ... investigate the problem from every angle and try to develop their own reasonable, real-life solutions. Along the way, they will learn valuable research skills, practice critical thinking, and develop presentations to show their results"--P. [4] of cover. |
