- Identified the body of water as a river
- Observed the color of the water as green
- Noticed the movement of the water as it flowed downstream
- Identified the canoe as a mode of transportation on water
- Observed the paddles as tools used to move the canoe through the water
- Noticed the different types of plants and animals living near the river
Continued development can include learning about the different types of plants and animals that live in and around rivers, exploring the water cycle and how rivers fit into it, and discussing the importance of water conservation and pollution prevention.
