The authors of this book have been in your shoes. These experienced
science teachers know what it’s like to work with students who
struggle to understand their science texts. Once Upon a Physical
Science Book came about because they couldn’t find a resource
that shows how to integrate reading, writing, and physical
science—so they wrote one themselves. Practical and easy to use,
Once Upon a Physical Science Book provides everything you need to
boost students’ skills in science and reading at the same time.
It starts with advice on teaching reading-comprehension strategies
to middle school students. Then the 12 content chapters give you:
Hands-on physical science lessons with engaging titles such as
“The Smash-Masters,” “Energy’s Wild Ride,” and “How to
Not Die in Antarctica.” Readings that cover key physical science
concepts, including physical and chemical properties, inertia,
energy, magnets, and waves. The readings support the Next
Generation Science Standards and the Common Core State Standards.
Writing activities to connect what students did with what they
read, plus “Thinking Mathematically” activities. Assessment
exercises to give you feedback on what your students are learning.
A follow-up to NSTA Press’s Once Upon a Life Science Book and
Once Upon an Earth Science Book, this resource emphasizes the
special ability of science teachers to improve students’ literacy
skills. As the authors note, “The good news is that there are
many parallels between how people learn science and how they learn
to become better readers. … As you and your students work through
these lessons together, you will be able to watch their confidence
as readers—and your confidence as a reading educator—grow.”
