Download or read book The Wolves of Alaska written by Jim Rearden and published by Graphic Arts Books. This book was released on 2014-04-04 with total page 313 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jim Rearden is Alaska's most popular outdoors journalist. He holds two degrees in wildlife management and was Professor of Wildlife Management at the University of Alaska Fairbanks 1950-54. As a member of the Alaska Board of Game 75-82 he helped develop the Tanana Flats wolf control program. He details with historical accuracy the controversy that erupted when the 1975 program was announced.

Alaska’s wolves are the main characters in this historically and biologically accurate recounting. Included are vivid anecdotes about wolves with descriptions of their behavior and way of life, examples of their intelligence, and expressions of appreciation for their charm and beauty, as well as an honest look at their savage efficiency as predators and relationship to urban and rural Alaskans.

Book Synopsis The Alaskan Retreater's Notebook by : Ray Ordorica
Download or read book The Alaskan Retreater's Notebook written by Ray Ordorica and published by Skyhorse. This book was released on 2016-01-19 with total page 182 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the fall of 1978 Ray Ordorica packed everything he thought he would need into his Toyota LandCruiser and drove north to Alaska. He came to a land he had never seen, to find something he wasn't even sure existed: a wilderness cabin he could use for a year or more to live, think, relax, read, and write. Ordorica found his cabin, fixed it up, and, although it was just an un-insulated 12- by 16-foot one-room log structure, he spent three winters in it in relative comfort. Ordorica’s life in that cabin fulfilled a dream he had had for more than ten years. During his long winters in Alaska, it occurred to him that there must be many others who have put off an extended wilderness visit to out of ignorance or fear. They have as many questions about Alaska as he had before he arrived: How do you cope with 40 below? How do you get water? Is it totally dark in mid-winter? These questions and many more gave Ordorica the idea to write the Alaskan Retreater’s Notebook, an epic memoir about one man’s journey into the Alaskan wilderness. With his wisdom, you will learn how to live with the country, and not against it.

Book Synopsis Perfect Pairs, 3-5 by : Melissa Stewart
Download or read book Perfect Pairs, 3-5 written by Melissa Stewart and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-10-10 with total page 362 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hands-on lessons can be fun and compelling, but when it comes to life science, they aren't always possible, practical, effective, or safe. Children can't follow wolves as they hunt elk, visit a prehistoric swamp, or shrink down to the size of a molecule and observe photosynthesis firsthand. But they can explore a whole world of animals, plants, and ecosystems through the pages of beautifully illustrated, science-themed picture books. Perfect Pairs, which marries fiction and nonfiction picture books focused on life science, helps educators think about and teach life science in a whole new way. Each of the twenty lessons in this book is built around a pair of books that introduces a critical life science concept and guides students through an inquiry-based investigative process to explore that idea-;from life cycles and animal-environment interactions to the inheritance of traits and the critical role of energy in our world. Each lesson starts with a Wonder Statement and comprises three stages. Engaging Students features a hands-on activity that captures student interest, uncovers current thinking, and generates vocabulary. The heart of the investigative process, Exploring with Students, spotlights the paired books as the teacher reads aloud and helps students find and organize information into data tables. Encouraging Students to Draw Conclusions shows students how to review and analyze the information they have collected. Bringing high-quality science-themed picture books into the classroom engages a broad range of students, addresses the Performance Expectations outlined in the Next Generation Science Standards, and supports the goals of the Common Core State Standards for English Language Arts. Even if you are science shy, Perfect Pairs can help you become a more confident teacher whose classroom buzzes with curious students eager to explore their natural world.

Book excerpt: On April 16, I see an ad for property for a reasonable price in an area I know from my ski tours. I drive there immediately, but the road is not drivable all the way. My high rubber boots fill with snow when I walk down an unused road, but there are power lines! I find a poster of Meyeres real estate agency in a corner with birch forest on a Northwest slope. Far away, I can see low mountaintops. ... The fastest way to contact the real estate agency is to drive there. I throw a $100 bill on the table. "I am interested in the property. Here is my down payment." When Kristina Ahlnäs moves from Finland to Alaska to start a new life as an American oceanographer her life is clearly more than normal. In this quirky memoir Kristina recalls unique experiences in her job, to seeing UFO's in the Alaskan sky, and even building her own log cabin.
