The Watershed Education Resource Box is a collection of books, posters and instructional activities targeting reading and writing in grades 4-8. The activities are related to environmental concepts and correlated to the Sunshine State Standards. This download includes the manual and student activity pages for the Watershed Educational Resource Box, as well as ordering information for the books, posters and puppets. Reading and Writing Naturally is an on-line database of children's literature with environmental topics.

Electronic Library

The following are electronic e-texts of a variety of books. The originals were done by Project Gutenburg. I have adapted the ones below to make them easier to use in talking word processors.

The text version can easily be downloaded to your computer and opened in a talking word processor. The HTML versions will look fine in your web browser and can be read by web page readers.

Alice in Wonderland and Anne of Green Gables are large files and you may need to break them down. I have done just that with some of Aesop's Fables and the Beatrix Potters' Stories.
