4.0 out of 5 stars Talking to learn/ An excellent method, October 1, 2000
By 
Laurie (Boise, ID USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Talking Their Way into Science: Hearing Children's Questions and Theories, Responding With Curricula (Language and Literacy Series (Teachers College ... in Contemporary Educational Thought Series) (Paperback)
Karen Gallas does extensive research into the method of letting children talk to learn as a learning technique. This book can be used as a handbook on how to integrate this type of teaching method into your own classroom. This is an excellent resource for any teacher wanting to really let their students interact with the content that you are teaching.

5.0 out of 5 stars Read it even if you don't teach!, August 15, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Talking Their Way into Science: Hearing Children's Questions and Theories, Responding With Curricula (Language and Literacy Series (Teachers College ... in Contemporary Educational Thought Series) (Paperback)
Fantastic insight into the young child's mind. I bought this for a class and I'm keeping it because it was so funny and an all around good book. It was fascinating to read the way children can think about science if we just let them.
