(Discoveries…America National Parks). 51 min. Bennett-Wyatt Entertainment. 2017. $24.95. ISBN 9781604902136.
COPY ISBN
Gr 4–6—Discover some of Utah's most stunning national parks. Full of tourists every year, Zion, Bryce Canyon, and Capital Reef do a great job balancing traffic and land/animal preservation. Young viewers will learn about the beauty and convenience of these national parks firsthand from those who know it best—the park rangers. The information provided is detailed and informative. Perspectives expressed are fairly subjective and offer a wide range of knowledge. Film editing is smooth and presents the parks from many different angles. This is an ideal supplement for any of the fourth grade English language arts Common Core Standards for informational text, but it would also work for older grades.
VERDICT A good addition to collections looking to broaden their Common Core curriculum materials.
