A big mixer -- Parts of a concrete mixer -- Picture glossary

"In Concrete Mixers, emergent readers will learn about the parts and functions of a concrete mixer as well as why its drum has to keep turning. Vibrant, full-color photos and carefully leveled text will engage early readers as they discover how a concrete is mixed, moved, and spread to create sidewalks and buildings. A labeled diagram helps readers identify different parts of a concrete mixer, while a picture glossary reinforces new vocabulary. Children can learn more about concrete mixers online using our safe search engine that provides relevant, age-appropriate websites. Concrete Mixers also features reading tips for teachers and parents, a table of contents, and an index. Concrete Mixers is part of Jump!'s Construction Zone series"--
