Responding to the diversity that exists in today's classrooms, Kellough attempts to enhance the teaching (and therefore learning) of individual disciplines by connecting them to both the entire curriculum and the real world. The book begins by covering fundamentals important to all teachers of Grades 4-9, then provides examples, methods and activities for integrating the instruction of mathematics and science.

For courses in Secondary Science Methods. Science Instruction in the Middle and Secondary Schools: Developing Fundamental Knowledge and Skills for Teaching has been thoroughly revised to provide the initial scaffolding needed by beginning teachers to understand and enact the basics of science teaching and learning. This new edition includes six new introductory chapters focusing on the basic functions of science teaching-purpose, planning, teaching, managing, and assessing.

Note: This is the loose-leaf version of Science Instruction in the Middle and Secondary Schools and does not include access to the Pearson eText. To order the Pearson eText packaged with the loose-leaf version, use ISBN 0133783766. Science Instruction in the Middle and Secondary Schools gives pre-service and novice teachers the knowledge and basic skills they need to enact the basics of science teaching—purpose, planning, assessing, teaching, and managing. It features numerous motivating features such as vignettes, cares, classroom examples, exercises, and more, to give the concepts real meaning in readers’ everyday lives. This new edition supports science teaching and learning as reflected in the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS), and prepares teacher candidates to demonstrate the knowledge, skills, and dispositions called for in the 2012 NSTA Standards for Science and Teacher Preparation.

Appropriate for Science Methods for the Secondary School courses. This science methods textbook is designed to prepare middle and high school science teachers to help students become scientifically and technologically literate by first helping them understand the National Science Standards and other elements of science reform and then supporting their efforts.

This science methods textbook is designed to provide middle and high school science teachers with the skills they need to help students become scientifically and technologically literate. To be successful, beginning teachers must master the basic functions of teaching. They are: <ul>
<li> Understanding the purpose of science teaching </li> <li> Planning science lessons that are engaging and lead to meaningful learning </li> <li> Managing the science learning environment in ways that emphasize student responsibility </li> <li> Assessing students science learning throughout the instructional process </li> <li> Teaching in a way that is both active and personally rewarding. </li> </ul>
Once these basic skills have been mastered, then pre-service teachers are ready to tackle the other important topics relevant to science teaching and learning. In order to meet this goal, the authors immediately engage their readers with six introductory chapters on these basic skills. The remaining chapters focus on the foundational areas of science education and strategies for science teaching. Many vignettes and examples of classroom practices are included to reinforce the chapter content. The appendices provide Puzzling Situations, science demonstrations, science laboratory activities, and a scoring key for the science inventory found in Chapter One. New To This Edition: NEW: Opens each of the six introductory chapters with revised vignettes that serve as advanced organizers of the chapter–Focuses on the basic functions of science teaching-purpose: planning, assessing, teaching, and managing. NEW! Correlates the chapter content with the NSTA/NCATE 2003 Professional Standards for Science Teacher Preparation–Facilitates the preparation of the NCATE review process at many universities. NEW! Uses backwards design strategies (Wiggins &amp; McTighe, 2005) to guide the discussion of instructional planning in Chapter Three–Emphasizes unit planning (rather than lesson planning) and the state science standards. <ul>
<li> Guided by backward design strategies, the book stresses the use of state and locally developed curriculum frameworks and science literacy (strand) maps presented online by the National Science Digital Library. </li> </ul>
 NEW! Introduces a Beginning Science Teacher’s Checklist for evaluating lesson assessment practices (Chapter 4)–These three sections focus on assessment practices that should be addressed before, during, and after a lesson. NEW! Addresses Differentiated Instruction in Chapter 8 Diverse Adolescent Learners and Differentiated Instruction –Suggests ways teachers can address the diverse learning needs of today’s students. NEW! Emphasizes the use of Technological Tools of Science Learning such as computer data collection probe-ware and graphing calculators in Chapter 15–Discusses their use in student investigations. NEW! Addresses learning through talk and argumentation in sections of Chapter 11–Shows uses of discussion, demonstration, and lecture in science teaching.
