Publisher's Synopsis
Aimed at the needs, challenges and concerns of grade school teachers, this is a large collection of inexpensive and delightful activities ideas for teaching K-5 science. The science involved is explained within the activities texts to help those who may not be confident of their own understanding of the material. It includes ideas for remembering and summarizing activities as well as discovery activities. While the focus is primarily on the physical and earth sciences, attention is also given to life sciences as well. Developed at Oglethorpe University in Atlanta, Georgia, for the most part it conforms to the Georgia Performance Standards in topical coverage although it is not confined by them.
