    5.0 out of 5 stars Great Resource, July 7, 2009
    Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
    This review is from: Methods for Teaching Elementary School Science (5th Edition) (Paperback)
    This book is a great resource for science teachers. It gives an alternative to textbooks when teaching science. It gives ideas on how to actually integrate inquiry science units with your current science program in school. These are the ideas and methods I have been searching for and been wanting to learn, as I hate school textbooks, and always try to use them as least as possible!
