Are you interested in helping your elementary students learn the
practices of science, including constructing explanations and
engaging in argument from evidence? Argument-Driven Inquiry in
Fifth-Grade Science will provide you with both the information and
instructional materials you need to get started right away. The
book is a one-stop source of expertise, advice, and investigations.
It's designed to help your fifth graders work the way scientists do
while integrating literacy and math at the same time.
Argument-Driven Inquiry in Fifth-Grade Science is divided into two
basic parts: 1. An introduction to the stages of ADI-from question
identification, data analysis, and argument development to
evaluating and revising ideas. 2. A well-organized series of 16
field-tested investigations designed to be much more authentic for
instruction than traditional activities. The focus is on making
sense of how the world works. Investigations cover matter and its
interactions; motion and stability; ecosystems and their
interactions, energy, and dynamics; Earth's place in the universe;
and Earth's systems. Using the Student Workbook, your students will
explore important content and discover scientific practices.
They'll investigate questions such as: What happens to a
substance's weight when transforming from a solid to a liquid?
Where does the matter that plants need to grow come from? Why do
days change length in different locations on Earth? And why do
people use hot water instead of cold when making tea? This book is
part of NSTA's bestselling series about ADI in elementary, middle,
and high school science. Like its predecessors, this collection is
designed to be easy to use, with teacher notes, investigation
handouts, and checkout questions. The lessons support the Next
Generation Science Standards and the Common Core State Standards
for English language arts and mathematics. The book can also help
emerging bilingual students meet the English Language Proficiency
Standards with its tips for teaching English language learners.
Many of today's elementary school teachers-like you-want new ways
to engage students in scientific practices and help students learn
more from classroom activities. Argument-Driven Inquiry in
Fifth-Grade Science does all of this while giving students the
chance to practice reading, writing, speaking, and using
mathematics in the context of science.
