Product Description
by Eileen Tannich Gose (Author)
This story is based on an ancient archaeological site at White Sands National Park in New Mexico. This amazing place contains thousands of fossilized footprints of Ice Age animals and humans! From the evidence, archaeologists can "see" hunters stalking a giant sloth, mammoths crossing the path of a woman and a child, and teenagers slipping and sliding in the mud along the ancient lake.
Mammoths, giant sloths and saber-toothed tigers in the middle of the New Mexico desert? What do the white sands have to do with these Ice Age animals? Learn how geology, paleontology and modern technology explain these fun-filled facts-while you learn to write your own story.
A Read and Write Book shows you just how to do that by creating a Five Sentence Story. The five sentences alone make a complete story. The character, setting, problem and solution are all included in those five sentences. Then, by adding a few more sentences, the story becomes more interesting, and the Five Sentence Story will become a Five Paragraph story.
