<p>A complete handbook for teachers & curriculum developers from theory to detailed how-to steps. The book opens with an overview of brain research into how the human brain learns garnered from the past 20 years, its implications for the classroom, & its relationship to the scientific "thinking processes." Providing clear & practical ideas for making science brain compatible, the book continues through step-by-step instructions for developing curriculum which integrates all areas of science using the Kovalik Integrated Thematic Instruction model. A K-6 scope & sequence plus sample themes, key points & inquiries are included. The second edition builds upon the experiences of more than 300 teachers who participated in an intensive science improvement program (a three year commitment) whose goal was to use science as the focus for integrating all subjects & basic skills. Don't just dabble or struggle to reinvent the wheel... build upon the experiences of others. Use proven approaches which ensure quantum leaps in achievement for all students, especially second language acquisition & disadvantaged students. 175 pages. ISBN 0-9630547-2-4, February 1994.
