Science Knowledge and the Environment - A Guide for Students and Teachers in Primary Education (Paperback): Michael Littledyke,... Science Knowledge and the Environment - A Guide for Students and Teachers in Primary Education (Paperback)
Michael Littledyke, Liz Lakin, Keith Ross
R1,206 Discovery Miles 12 060 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

This book provides an environmental 'way in' to the science every primary science teacher needs to know under the ITT National Curriculum issued by the Teacher Training Agency. It builds constructively on the knowledge of and involvement in environmental issues possessed by practicing and student teachers, whether specialist or non-specialist scientists. Especially for the latter, science can be a daunting and difficult area of their teaching. The authors believe that, by way of an environmental emphasis, the science underpinning such practice can be acquired by most students, enabling them to build their confidence as effective science teachers, while developing environmental awareness and understanding in primary children.

    It’s a sun-scorched world where clouds rarely come and nothing seems to move. That is, until children ages 6 - 9 up look a little closer to find tortoises, toads, and lizards, not to mention the scary rattlesnake and scorpion. Here, plants send their roots deep into the earth to find water, beetles stand on their head and shoot a stinky spray to fight off enemies, and roadrunners whiz by sleepy turtles and nervous desert mice on their way to ... where? Kids need only light clothes and a few simple pieces of equipment to explore the enchantments of cactus country.
