Inhaltsangabe

Activities for Teaching Science as Inquiry includes over 100 activities to cover essential concepts in physical, life, and earth strands.  Background information is provided for teachers as well as ways to motivate learners and help them apply what they learn. 

 

Every activity follows the 5-E Model (Engaging, Exploring, Explaining, Elaborating, and Evaluating,) and is sequenced to develop science concepts in a developmentally appropriate way for grades K-8.  The 5-E model is a Learning Cycle Model that reflects the NSES Science as Inquiry Standards.  The inclusion of the NSES standards provides a comprehensive view of how the NSES Science Content Standards can be used to organize curriculum and inform instruction in elementary and middle school science.  A series of activities are also included to meet the needs of students with exceptionalities. 

 

The book is organized into four sections: 

 

1.      Teaching Inquiry Science Activities

2.      Physical Science Activities

3.      Life Science Activities

4.      Earth and Space Science Activities

 

The appendices include information on safety, measuring, where to buy supplies, science periodicals, professional societies, and contemporary elementary science projects and programs.

Von der hinteren Coverseite

Inquiry-based teaching is central to the National Science Education Standards (NSES) and Benchmarks for Scientific Literacy, and research has proven that an inquiry approach to science teaching motivates and engages every type of student. Activities for Teaching Science as Inquiry follows a clear, easy-to-follow approach to inquiry, using the 5-E Learning Cycle model of instruction (Engage, Explore, Explain, Elaborate, Evaluate). Derived from the leading book on the market, Teaching Science as Inquiry, it offers an abundance of practical ways to take inquiry science into your classroom!  A few of the highlights of this new seventh edition are:

  • Each activity is keyed to the NSES Standards, further developing new and experienced teachers' fluency with a standards-based science classroom.
  • Activities adhere even more closely to the 5-E instructional model. The 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 their science classroom.
