What children learn in Level 14
- Georgia has three major rivers: the Savannah, the Flint, and the Chattahoochee.
- The Savannah River forms the border between Georgia and South Carolina. It flows past Augusta and the city of Savannah into the Atlantic Ocean.
- The Chattahoochee starts in the Blue Ridge mountains, flows past Atlanta, and then forms part of the border with Alabama.
- The Flint starts just south of Atlanta and flows south through Albany. It meets the Chattahoochee at Lake Seminole.
- Rivers give people water to drink, fish to eat, and a way to travel and ship things. Many cities grew up beside them.
