Social  Science (pages 50 and  51) Unit 4 What is the mouth of a river?

What bodies of water surround the Iberian Peninsula?
The Iberian Peninsula is surrounded by three major bodies of water: the Atlantic Ocean, the Mediterranean Sea and the Cantabrian Sea.

Do you know what is the mouth of a river?  When we speak about a river, we must know these important words SOURCE, TRIBUTARY and   MOUTH.

•  The source is where a river begins, it is used to be at the top of the mountain.
• A tributary is a river or stream that flows into a larger river or lake. For instance: Manzanares river that flows through Madrid, it empties into the  Jarama river, which in turn is a  tributary  to the Tajo.
• The river mouth is where the river joins the sea.
