Synopsis

For courses in Science Methods in Elementary School.

Research tells us that an inquiry approach to science teaching motivates and engages every type of student, helping them understand science's relevance to their lives, as well as the nature of science itself. Teaching Science as Inquiry demonstrates a manageable way for new and experienced teachers to bring inquiry successfully into the science classroom. Activities for Teaching Science as Inquiry follows the 5-E model (Engage, Explore, Explain, Elaborate, Evaluate), a Learning Cycle model introduced in the methods chapters that reflects the NSES Science as Inquiry Standards.

À propos de la quatrième de couverture

Research tells us that an inquiry approach to science teaching motivates and engages every type of student, helping them understand not only science's relevance to their lives but also the nature of science itself. But is there a manageable way for new and experienced teachers to bring inquiry into their science classrooms?

Activities for Teaching Science as Inquiry uses the 5-E model (Engage, Explore, Explain, Elaborate, Evaluate), a Learning Cycle model of instruction that reflects the NSES Science as Inquiry Standards, as a framework for each activity.

Integrating an inquiry approach, science content, and NSES Standards within its bank of inquiry activities, Activities for Teaching Science as Inquiry demonstrates the manageable way for new and experienced teachers to bring inquiry into the science classroom.

• Each activity is keyed to the NSES Standards, further developing new and experienced teachers' fluency with a standards-based science classroom.
• The 5-E framework provides a clear, manageable way to engage students in inquiry activities.
• Clear activity outlines, including needed safety precautions, meaningfully prepare new and experienced teachers for integrating inquiry activities into the science classroom.
