This 124-page youth text and workbook teaches middle school-age children about Idaho habitats as part of a three-year course. An ongoing narrative involving the characters Emily and Logan (peer examples) helps guide youth to develop a sense of responsibility about habitat maintenance as they participate in multiple experiential, interactive and supervised learning activities (worksheets included). Topics covered include soil science, watersheds, how to determine water quantity and quality, assessing habitat health, monitoring water use and more. A handy glossary helps refresh students’ understanding of key terms.
