Review

With the aim of building a bridge between current research and practice, this book offers a comprehensive look at issues in science and literacy teaching. Authoritative chapters on research and practice are followed by pertinent case studies of teachers using the methods described. Input from all the shareholders contribute to the nuanced discussion. --Curriculum Connections, School Library Journal, Spring 2007

A timely book with practical suggestions for preparing teachers to use interdisciplinary instruction in all K 8 settings, including multicultural ones. ... Particularly interesting are the case stories included in each section, which provide contexts for interpreting the follow-up chapters in that section and enable the reader to see how the recommended strategies can actually play out in classroom practice. --Science Books & Films, December 2006
