This unique resource for teachers of grades 1-4 is filled with
innovative ways to use ordinary toys and play materials to
demonstrate how the senses work in a way that young children can
understand. And the best part is that these hands-on activities
have already been proven effective in the classroom Based on the
successful National Science Foundation-funded Teaching Science with
TOYS program at Miami University of Ohio, this teacher resource can
be used to teach students how to use their five senses to explore
the properties of matter by recording, classifying, presenting, and
explaining their observations. This book also meets the
requirements of the new National Science Education Standards and
has 19 exciting activities. The three sections of the book include
pedagogy, background science content for the teacher, and
activities that feature dozens of reproducible work sheets,
hand-outs, and suggestions for incorporating toy-based activities
into lessons. Each activity includes grade level, key science
topics, science process skills, a materials list, and more.
