Grades 3-8. Douglas Llewellyn. 174 pages.

The call to teach science through an inquiry-based process is being heard by teachers at all levels, but until now little has been offered in the way of practical advice and concrete examples to implement this strategy in the classroom.

Here you will find a comprehensive guide to inquiry-based learning. Real-life scenarios, step-by-step plans for applying inquiry-based methods to classroom environments and activities, straightforward charts, rubrics, and other assessment tools to evaluate progress, and extensive resource information make this an invaluable tool for conscientious educators seeking to cultivate their students' sense of discovery and critical thinking. Soft cover.
