Ring-o By Allison Neale
Inside the Earth (Magic School Bus)By Joanna Cole From School Library Journal 	Grade 2-5 Cole and Degen have struck at the core once again to produce an exciting, attractive, and informative science book for young readers. Children who entered Ms. Frizzle's classroom in The Magic School Bus at the Waterworks (Scholastic, 1986), are in for another exuberant, intriguing field trip. This time, it's to the center of the earth. Surprises abound through each strata down to the very inner core where it is hot, hot, hot. The class collects rock samples before the bus is expelled from the earth's core in a volcanic eruption. Illustrations are in watercolor cartoon format and attendant ``balloons'' contain pertinent information or students' humorous asides. There are also pages from students' reports on rocks. A tongue-in-cheek section at the end discusses the real and fantasy aspects of the book. Containing uncluttered text and illustrations, it is an anticipatory page-turner full of exciting adventure from school yard to volcano and back. Mary Lou Budd, Milford South Elementary School, OhioCopyright 1988 Reed Business Information, Inc. --This text refers to the Hardcover edition.

The Magic School Bus at the WaterworksBy Joanna Cole From School Library Journal 	Grade 2-4 A remarkable meshing of text and illustration make this an outstanding, lively treatment of a subject for which there is very little written for this age group. Ms. Frizzle has assigned her class a month-long investigation of how their city gets its water supply, to be followed by a field trip to the water works. With ``The Friz'' as driver, the children encounter surprise after surprise, as they are magically clad in scuba gear while in a tunnel, then slowly ascend to a cloud, where each child disembarks; falls as a drop of water into a mountain stream; flows into a reservoir; and bounces through the purification system, pipes, and water mains under the city streets. The trip ends with all arriving, drop by drop, in the girls' bathroom in their school as a seventh grader turns on the water faucet. A subsequent classroom mural is drawn of their field trip with the interesting facts of water posted above. Not such a bad trip after all! Liveliness and humor combine to provide valuable information in a simple, explicit text, totally complemented by cheery cartoon-like illustrations. A finishing flourish are the two pages of humorous and lighthearted notes (for SERIOUS students only) at the text's end. This book will rarely sit on the shelf. Mary Lou Budd, Mil ford South Elementary School, OhioCopyright 1987 Reed Business Information, Inc. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
The Magic School Bus at the WaterworksBy Joanna Cole Activity Define a cycle. As a class, create a list on the board of different kinds of cycles that exist in the world. Read the book aloud to students. Discuss the causes and effects of each stage of the water cycle. Teach students “Water Cycle Song” by Foster Brown. Have students sing the song a couple times while following along with the lyrics provided on the overhead projector.

The Magic School Bus at the WaterworksBy Joanna Cole Activity Set up four different stations:  one with a picture of sun shining down on a snowman, one with a picture of boiling water, one with a picture of a foggy window, and one with a picture of rain falling from a cloud. Divide students into groups, and have them rotate through the stations, matching the terms melting, evaporation, condensation, and precipitation with the correct pictures while also determining what physical changes are occurring in each picture.  They will record their answers in a notebook. Discuss answers as a class. Have each group create a diagram that demonstrates how these processes work together to make up the water cycle. Have each group present their diagram. Standard Indicators Science 2.3.5:  Investigate that things can be done to materials, such as freezing, mixing, cutting, heating, wetting, etc., to change some of their properties and observe that not all materials respond the same way. (Investigate how water changes states.) Language Arts 2.7.6:  Speak clearly and at an appropriate pace for the type of communication (such as an informal discussion or a report to class).

The MonthsBy Sara Coleridge 	January brings the snow,makes our feet and fingers glow.February brings the rain,Thaws the frozen lake again.March brings breezes loud and shrill,stirs the dancing daffodil.April brings the primrose sweet,Scatters daisies at our feet.May brings flocks of pretty lambs,Skipping by their fleecy dams.June brings tulips, lilies, roses,Fills the children's hand with posies. 	Hot July brings cooling showers,Apricots and gillyflowers.August brings the sheaves of corn,Then the harvest home is borne.Warm September brings the fruit,Sportsmen then begin to shoot.Fresh October brings the pheasant,Then to gather nuts is pleasant.Dull November brings the blast,Then the leaves are whirling fast.Chill December brings the sleet,Blazing fire, and Christmas treat.
The MonthsBy Sara Coleridge Activity Have students read the poem out loud together as a class. Discuss how months fall into a pattern that is repeated each year.

  • 5. The Magic School Bus at the WaterworksBy Joanna Cole From School Library Journal Grade 2-4 A remarkable meshing of text and illustration make this an outstanding, lively treatment of a subject for which there is very little written for this age group. Ms. Frizzle has assigned her class a month-long investigation of how their city gets its water supply, to be followed by a field trip to the water works. With ``The Friz'' as driver, the children encounter surprise after surprise, as they are magically clad in scuba gear while in a tunnel, then slowly ascend to a cloud, where each child disembarks; falls as a drop of water into a mountain stream; flows into a reservoir; and bounces through the purification system, pipes, and water mains under the city streets. The trip ends with all arriving, drop by drop, in the girls' bathroom in their school as a seventh grader turns on the water faucet. A subsequent classroom mural is drawn of their field trip with the interesting facts of water posted above. Not such a bad trip after all! Liveliness and humor combine to provide valuable information in a simple, explicit text, totally complemented by cheery cartoon-like illustrations.

  • 7. The Magic School Bus at the WaterworksBy Joanna Cole Activity Set up four different stations: one with a picture of sun shining down on a snowman, one with a picture of boiling water, one with a picture of a foggy window, and one with a picture of rain falling from a cloud. Divide students into groups, and have them rotate through the stations, matching the terms melting, evaporation, condensation, and precipitation with the correct pictures while also determining what physical changes are occurring in each picture. They will record their answers in a notebook. Discuss answers as a class. Have each group create a diagram that demonstrates how these processes work together to make up the water cycle. Have each group present their diagram. Standard Indicators Science 2.3.5: Investigate that things can be done to materials, such as freezing, mixing, cutting, heating, wetting, etc., to change some of their properties and observe that not all materials respond the same way. (Investigate how water changes states.) Language Arts 2.7.6: Speak clearly and at an appropriate pace for the type of communication (such as an informal discussion or a report to class).

  • 8. The MonthsBy Sara Coleridge January brings the snow,makes our feet and fingers glow.February brings the rain,Thaws the frozen lake again.March brings breezes loud and shrill,stirs the dancing daffodil.April brings the primrose sweet,Scatters daisies at our feet.May brings flocks of pretty lambs,Skipping by their fleecy dams.June brings tulips, lilies, roses,Fills the children's hand with posies. Hot July brings cooling showers,Apricots and gillyflowers.August brings the sheaves of corn,Then the harvest home is borne.Warm September brings the fruit,Sportsmen then begin to shoot.Fresh October brings the pheasant,Then to gather nuts is pleasant.Dull November brings the blast,Then the leaves are whirling fast.Chill December brings the sleet,Blazing fire, and Christmas treat.
