Discover how to effectively incorporate literacy instruction into
your middle or high school science classroom with this practical
book. You'll find creative, inquiry-based tools to show you what it
means to teach science with and through writing, and strategies to
help your students become young scientists who can use reading and
writing to better understand their world. Troy Hicks, Jeremy Hyler,
and Wiline Pangle share helpful examples of lessons and samples of
students' work, as well as innovative strategies you can use to
improve students' abilities to read and write various types of
scientific nonfiction, including argument essays, informational
pieces, infographics, and more. As all three authors come to the
work of science and literacy from different perspectives and
backgrounds, the book offers unique and wide-ranging experiences
that will inspire you and offer you insights into many aspects of
the classroom, including when, why, and how reading and writing can
work in the science lesson. Featured topics include: Debates and
the current conversation around science writing in the classroom
and society. How to integrate science notebooks into teaching.
Improving nonfiction writing by expanding disciplinary vocabulary
and crafting scientific arguments. Incorporating visual
explanations and infographics. Encouraging collaboration through
whiteboard modeling. Professional development in science and
writing. The strategies are all aligned to the Next Generation
Science Standards and Common Core State Standards for ease of
implementation. From science teachers to curriculum directors and
instructional supervisors, this book is essential for anyone
wanting to improve interdisciplinary literacy in their school.
