The goal of Wendy Saul and Jeanne Reardon's book is not to dispense with kits, rather to encourage teachers and their students to see kits as just a beginning to real scientific inquiry. The essays in this volume reveal how elementary teachers have turned around their teaching to make themselves and their students producers as well as consumers of science knowledge.
