sections of the river they observed. After completing their drawings, the students found a satellite image of the Merrimack River on the Internet. Using the Merrimack image, Mr. D helped students relate their birds-eye drawings to the satellite image. Students identified patterns of erosion, degrees of meandering, and surrounding vegetation. They used Web sites, topographical maps, and other resources to collect additional information about the river. They researched how the underlying bedrock, topology
