Descubriendo el tule / Tule Discovery

Coming March 30, 2027. Pre-order today!

By: Leah Mata Fragua, Alexis Bunten, and Aria Naficy/ Illustrated by: Madelyn Goodnight

«Todos dependemos del tule».

Mono y mamá se van a pasar la tarde en el estanque. Mientras mamá recoge tule, una planta similar a una caña que crece en ecosistemas de humedales, Mono explora la vida silvestre a su alrededor. Al saltar como una rana, volar como un mirlo y esconderse como una tortuga, aprende que tanto los animales como su familia dependen del tule todos los días.

Amplía lo aprendido más allá de la historia con el material de apoyo elaborado por expertos que incluye información adicional sobre las estructuras y las funciones animales y divertidas actividades STEAM.

STEAMWORKS presenta a niños de diversos trasfondos y habilidades que utilizan el pensamiento científico-matemático para solucionar problemas cotidianos y responder a preguntas que les interesan. Estas historias lúdicas y las actividades de extensión despiertan el entusiasmo por la ciencia, la tecnología, la ingeniería, las artes y las matemáticas (STEAM) y empoderan a los niños para pensar, solucionar problemas e innovar.

Mono and Momma are off to the pond to spend the afternoon. While Momma gathers tule, a reedlike plant that grows in wetland ecosystems, for a project, Mono explores the wildlife he sees. As he jumps like a frog, flies like a blackbird, and hides like a turtle, he ultimately learns how both the animals and his family depend on tule everyday.

Extend the learning beyond the story with expertly crafted back matter, including additional information about structure and function and fun STEAM activities.

STEAMWORKS features children of all backgrounds and abilities using scientific and mathematical thinking to solve everyday problems and answer questions that matter to them. Playful stories and extension activities ignite excitement for science, technology, engineering, arts, and math (STEAM) and empower children as thinkers, problem solvers, and innovators.

Maximum quantity available reached.
