Publisher's Notes
Learning in primary science is most effective when children can interpret their own experience and investigations in scientific terms. This book provides the background knowledge which teachers need in order to plan effective programs of work and answer children’s questions with confidence. Each chapter is divided into sections, which are linked by extensive cross-referencing for easy use as a resource and reference. As a work of reference used to answer specific questions and clarify ideas, or as a resource for planning an effective primary science program, this is an essential book for primary teachers.

Packed with the science content future teachers must know, and based on the premise that integrated learning by inquiry is the cornerstone of effective science teaching, this book focuses on the four developmental components of both teaching and learning—the why, what, how, and how well of teaching. The authors present an eclectic approach to teaching, sharing the best of practice, the most useful research, and the lessons learned from their own rich array of teaching experience. Content correlates with NSES standards, while being ideally balanced between the attention span of kindergartners and the genuine interest of eighth graders, addressing the full range of learners in between.
