About the Book
By Nadia Easton
Ms Joyce's 5th grade class studied the Mill River. We walked to
the river and wrote poetry and learned all about the life of the river.
We learned about:
Living things in the Mill River
The power of water
The movement of water
Geology
Chemistry of water
Lost objects in the river
Mill River history
We made paintings to go with our poetry. We hope that you enjoy our book.

The Flow
By Emmett Bastek
The Mill River flows with elegance and peace. Supporting all life with its generosity. The current not too fast, but not too slow, just keeps going and going with a peaceful flow. Sometimes rough, but then it calms down. It has its own melody with its calming sound.

Mill River Movement
By Astrid Jensen, Autumn O’Malley, Julia Caputo, and Marley Bernstein
Water can be quick or slow, depending on the weather. It can be dangerous or gentle. It can evolve over time, but it will always have a movement. Rain can change the movement of the water.
When rain comes frequently, water moves quickly and can be dangerous at times. But when rain comes less often, water is calm and slow. Rain is one of the reasons water has different movements. Snow, hail, currents, and the moon are only a few of the reasons water has movement.
