A diverse group of students living on the Mobile Bay take a trip through the Alabama Delta, also known as the ‘American Amazon’.
Through experienced teachers and guides helping the Delta Kids understand this unique environment, the student reader learns about the magnitude and diversity of wildlife, aquatic life, fauna and insects that populate the largest biosystem outside of the Amazon forests in Brazil.
After their adventure they produce an amazing 3-D project that colorfully describes the habitat.
Parents and teachers can access through the website numerous lesson plans that contain some very simple and several complex hands-on science experiments developed by instructors from The University of Alabama.
Delta Kids is a unique teaching tool that combines storytelling and learning in an easy to read and colorful book.
