  • Rating The BEST Teaching Resource Book EVER  Jun 12, 2009 (3 of 3 found this helpful)

    I own a lot of "teaching" books. I have never had a book that had so much content that I could actually benefit from right away. This book is divided in such away to actually allow you to TEACH the most meaningful scientific processes that kids will need in all areas of science. It also has tons of cool experiments divided into the major science themes that kids will love that demonstrate these fundamental science concepts (induction vs deduction, indirect evidence to come to a conclusion, etc). It is FANTASTIC. You can teach content while teaching meaningful science techniques and skills.

  • Rating old and new ideas  Sep 2, 2008 (3 of 3 found this helpful)

    What a great book! I've been teaching science for 19 years and don't remember a sourcebook that is as complete as this one. Old ideas and methods are revised and reviewed and new ideas are introduced and evaluated.

  • Rating Wonderful  Jul 14, 2009 (1 of 1 found this helpful)

    Very resourceful for all types of science subjects. Interchangable activities, very, very useful. Out of all the science subject sourcebooks I have purchased, this has been, by far the best and most useful.
