Designed to fit science into your schedule, complete lessons explicitly teach the process skills of inquiry. Photo-illustrated instructions for each hands-on activity provide an invaluable resource for teachers at any experience or comfort level with science. Lessons move from building background knowledge to hands-on inquiry to assessment. Extension activities apply the process skills to other curricular areas, including reading, math, social studies and art. Physical, life, and Earth and space science content aligns with National Science Education Standards. Meeting Individual Needs section in each lesson offers ideas for differentiating instruction. Great for building the deeper level of understanding that applies both to standardized science tests and everyday life. Each teacher handbook contains 36 lessons and 45 blackline masters. Rubrics, assessment, answer keys and blackline masters available online. Tabbed, spiral-bound books with 152 pages measure 9"L x 11"H each. Grades K–5 and Grades K–1.
