It has been tempting to jump ship (hee hee, corny pun) in our ocean unit study and study about all the cool marine life. But I felt like we needed to stay focused just a bit more on the actual geography and science behind how the water moves.
So today I have the ocean currents minibook ready. I wanted Tiny to take time in today’s lesson to think and pause about the wonders below.
It is important to me that Tiny understands that ocean currents are like giant “rivers” of water and they probably could make any mighty river we can physically see as miniature by comparison. You know this is the part of the unit study where I want to build his awe for creation.
I think this part of studying oceanography has to be one of the fascinating parts to understanding the vastness of the ocean.
Bottom line: We are soaking up our study of the ocean and loving it! On the next post on our Ocean Lapbook, I will show you the layout of the minibooks. I normally like to get three or so minibooks made before I show you the layout and oh yes, I have the cover page coming too.
Download the next minibook Ocean Currents Here.
Hugs and love ya,
Did you grab my other posts in our Ocean Unit Study?

Thanks Jess for scooting by and reminding me where I had linked up this baby at..lol. I knew I had linked up someplace and it was driving me nuts where. Love your party and I have added it to my list of places to visit!
Thanks again!
