The Beginning, Middle, and End!
• All rivers have a source, or a beginning. • As the river makes it’s journey away from
the source it grows because it has smaller river and streams
called tributaries that flow into it. • Like all rivers the Hudson River has an
end, or a mouth, where the water empties into a large body of water like the Atlantic Ocean.
