5th grade social studies review of river courses, ie upper, middle and lower course.

Instructions for River courses

Funny game to review river courses in 5th grade social studies, where students will be revising the three main sections of a river: the upper course, middle course, and lower course.

The upper course is the section closest to the river's source and is characterized by steep gradients and fast-moving water. The middle course is the section between the upper and lower courses, where the river has a gentler gradient and flows at a more moderate pace. The lower course is the section closest to the river's mouth, where the gradient is very gentle, and the water flows at a slower pace.

The review will also include the features of each course, such as the types of landscapes, soil, and vegetation that can be found in each section of the river.
