Through a collaborative state-led process managed by Achieve new K–12 science standards have been developed that are rich in content and practice and arranged in a coherent manner across disciplines and grades to provide all students an internationally-benchmarked science education. The NGSS are based on the Framework for K–12 Science Education developed by the National Research Council.
Eleven year old Lexi Schwartzberg author and creator of a new book Lily Droplet's Amazing Adventure: The Water Cycle (ISBN: 978-0-99629-331-0) is a perfect way to integrate the new Science Standards with the enjoyment of literature.
After receiving an assignment in school to write about the water cycle from the point of view of a water droplet Lily’s Adventure began. The talented young author quickly turned the one paragraph assignment into a full-length story incorporating the science and lessons through dynamic and charming characters. The illustrations are equally delightful. Lexi worked with her Aunt Danielle an amazing and talented artist to illustrate the book. The two worked together to capture the fun and interesting path of Lily Droplet’s Amazing Adventure.
During the course of the book Lily experiences all the wonders of the water cycle. Lily Droplet’s Amazing Adventure teaches the concepts of evaporation condensation and precipitation; joining her along the journey are many friends and relatives each with a unique personality expressed throughout the book.
Lexi Schwartzberg is building a strong following of young readers and educators worldwide by sharing her creative talent and curiosity. Elements of the Common Core are addressed via informational text making Lily’s Adventure a perfect complement to early STEM (Science Technology Engineering and Math) curriculum.
