Overview
If you like the popular ā Teaching Science Through Trade Booksā columns in NSTAā s journal Science and Children, or if youā ve become enamored of the award-winning Picture-Perfect Science Lessons series, youā ll love this new collection. Itā s based on the same time-saving concept: By using childrenā s books to pique studentsā interest, you can combine science teaching with reading instruction in an engaging and effective way.
In this volume, column authors Christine Royce, Emily Morgan, and Karen Ansberry selected 50 of their favorites, updated the lessons, and added student activity pages, making it easier than ever to teach fundamental science concepts through high-quality fiction and nonfiction childrenā s books. Just as with the original columns, each lesson highlights two trade books and offers two targeted activities, one for Kā 3 and one for grades 4ā 6. All activities are Standards-based and inquiry-oriented.
From Measuring Penny and How Tall, How Short, How Far Away? to I Took a Walkand Secret Place, the featured books will help your students put science in a whole new context. Teaching Science Through Trade Books offers an ideal way to combine well-structured, ready-to-teach lessonsā with strong curricular connectionsā and books your students just may remember, always.
