xxiv, 488 p. : ill. ; 24 cm. 6th ed.

Teaching Children Science, Sixth Edition, presents a consistent and clear message about the type of learning experiences that teachers need to create. Namely, children learn best in classrooms in which they make discoveries (with the teacher's strong guidance) using inquiry-based approaches. Joseph Abruscato's "discovery approach" presents contemporary ideas in a motivating, engaging writing-style that captivates future classroom teachers and enhances instruction in the science classroom. -- Back cover.
