A guide to an activity-based course in science teaching methods for both pre-service and in-service teachers. Material is presented in the from of an extended interaction between a new and an experienced teacher. Lays out the theoretical foundation for constructivism, and covers recent ideas on inclusion, classroom management, thematic unit planning, and teacher expectations as they are applied to science teaching. Provides plans for science lessons, with separate chapters for primary and intermediate grades and group and individual investigations. This second edition ties lessons to new national standards, and shows how to use computers as tools for inquiry. Annotation c. by Book News, Inc., Portland, Or.
