This is the quintessential science book designed to introduce future teachers to science instruction through inquiry. Infused with the philosophical intent of the National Science Education Standards, it includes the theory behind knowledge construction, the how-tos of knowledge acquisition, and questioning strategies that promote inquiry. It is overflowing with practical and meaningful activities, information, inquiries, strategies, and lessons. The first chapter provides an in-depth look at using activities for inquiry, with subsequent chapters discussing activities involving physical science; life, ecology, and environmental science; earth and space science; and inquiry science activities for students with special needs. For elementary school science teachers.

Methods for Teaching Science as Inquiry demonstrates a manageable way for new and experienced teachers to bring inquiry successfully into the science classroom, scaffolding concepts and illustrating instructional models to help readers understand the inquiry approach to teaching. The primary focus is on the 5E model—Engaging, Exploring, Explaining, Elaborating, and Evaluating—a Learning Cycle model that reflects the NSES Science as Inquiry Standards, seamlessly integrating inquiry and the standards. It creates a science teaching framework best suited for engaging students in meaningful science learning. For pre-service and practicing elementary school science teachers and aids.

Contant, Terry L.

Integrating an inquiry approach, science content, and NSES Standards within its bank of inquiry activities, Activities for Teaching Science as Inquiry demonstrates the manageable way for new and experienced teachers to bring inquiry into the science classroom.

Activities for Teaching Science As Inquiry

Teaching Science as Inquiry demonstrates a manageable way for new and experienced teachers to bring inquiry successfully into the science classroom through a 2-part structure—Methods for Teaching Science as Inquiry and Activities for Teaching Science as Inquiry. The Methods portion scaffolds concepts and illustrates instructional models to help readers understand the inquiry approach to teaching. The Activities portion follows the 5-E model—Engage, Explore, Explain, Elaborate, and Evaluate—A Learning Cycle model introduced in the methods chapters that reflects the NSES Science as Inquiry Standards. For pre-service and practicing elementary school science teachers and aids.

Teaching Science as Inquiry

Teaching Science as Inquiry introduces prospective and experienced teachers to the science content, teaching strategies, and inquiry activities necessary to teach science in contemporary ways. In addition, the inclusion of the National Science Education standards will provide all readers a useful framework for making instructional decisions. Traditional learning focuses on learning about things. The teacher dispenses the information and the student receives it. The inquiry approach emphasizes how we learn things rather than just what we know. Instead of just memorizing facts, students are actively involved in learning. Learning becomes fun when students are fascinated by something and it reflects their interests, goals, and experiences. Using a two-pa

Methods for Teaching Science as Inquiry introduces prospective and experienced teachers to the science content and teaching strategies necessary to teach science in contemporary ways. Traditional learning focuses on learning about things. The teacher dispenses the information and the student receives it. The inquiry approach emphasizes how we learn things rather than just what we know. Instead of just memorizing facts, students are actively involved in learning. Learning becomes fun when students are fascinated by something and it reflects their interests, goals, and experiences. The primary focus of this book is on the 5-E Model (Engaging, Exploring, Explaining, Elaborating, and Evaluating,) a Learning Cycle Model that reflects the NSES Science as Inquiry Standards. The inclusion of these standards will provide all readers a useful framework for making instructional decisions. Classroom scenarios throughout the book illustrate strategies of inquiry instruction and introduce readers to important science concepts. The scenarios also provide opportunities for readers to develop more science knowledge themselves. For the instructor whose sole focus is methods, the ten chapters of this core text scaffold concepts and illustrate instructional models to help readers understand the inquiry approach to teaching.
