About this title

Synopsis

The fun, hands-on physical science lessons/experiments in this 312-page book teach science principles found in state and national science standards for grades 4 to 8. Students also learn and practice critical thinking through the application of the scientific method of investigation. Each activity is a 10- to 30-minute guided experiment in which students are prompted to verbalize their step-by-step observations, predictions, and conclusions. Reproducible pictures or charts are included when needed, but the focus is inquiry-based, hands-on science.

Preparation time is short, and most materials can be found around the classroom. Step-by-step procedures, questions, answer guidelines, and clear illustrations are provided. Practical applications at the end of each activity relate science concepts to real-life experiences. These activities can be used successfully with a minimum of science knowledge, preparation time, and science equipment. The lessons/experiments teach science following these four important educational themes:

    • Science can and should motivate students toward learning and toward developing curiosity about the world in which they live.
    • Science is viewed as an active process of developing ideas, or "storybuilding," rather than as static bodies of already-existing knowledge to be passed on to students.
    • Students are encouraged to observe and describe their observations accurately and completely using scientific terminology.
    • An open, interactive atmosphere in the classroom is essential.
