Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Ocean and Its Wonders by R.M. Ballantyne is an elegant and lyrical book of details and facts about the ocean during the mid-1800s. Excerpt: "There is a voice in the waters of the great sea. It calls to man continually. Sometimes it thunders in the tempest when the waves leap high and strong and the wild winds shriek and roar as if to force our attention. Sometimes it whispers in the calm and comes rippling on the shingly beach in a still, small voice as if to solicit our regard. But whether that voice of ocean comes in crashing billows or in gentle murmurs, it has but one tale to tell,—it speaks of the love, and power, and majesty of Him who rides upon the storm, and rules the wave."

Download or read book Wonders of the Sea written by Kendall Haven and published by Libraries Unlimited. This book was released on 2005-07-30 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Renowned story teller, Kendall Haven brings his expertise as an oceanographer to the authorship of this third book in a four- book series intended for teachers to use with students in the upper elementary and middle school grades. It focuses on natural phenomena of the sea (tides, tsunamis, sea spouts, giant squid, killer whales) through the eyes of ancient myth and looks at the modern day science that explains each myth, using the interdisciplinary style of teaching. Haven, bringing his knowledge of the science of oceanography, integrates various scientific fields of oceanic study--Physical Oceanography, Geologic Oceanography, Biological and Chemical Oceanography, etc.--to further integrate science curricular areas with the study of myth. Students will not only be encouraged to appreciate the magic in myth and science, but to understand the commonality of all human experience with nature over all time. The book contains myths from several different cultures along with accompanying scientific explanations to use with students. Included are bibliographies, recommended Web sites, student projects, and discussion and activity ideas. Illustrations and diagrams enhance student interest. The book is to be used by teachers and librarians with students and by students in libraries and classrooms. Grades 4-8.
