Elementary Classroom Management: A Student-Centered Approach to
Leading and Learning is designed to help preservice teachers think
and reflect on why things happen in classrooms, help them
understand the latest information about teaching and learning, help
them begin to utilize pedagogical structures that facilitate
success and thus management, and finally, help them design
classrooms that work for students who may need something extra.
There are four main goals that create the framework of this book.
These goals include: thinking and reflecting about the big issues
of classroom managementthinking, reflecting, and designing
pedagogical structures that, when used, address the issues of

Teaching science is as much about learning what it means to do
science as it is about the pedagogy of teaching. Launching Learners
in Science provides both theoretical and practical ideas
surrounding the teaching and learning of science. Providing
opportunities for teachers to observe, share, experiment, organize,
and hypothesize about science content, this resource also focuses
on the students and the kind of science instruction they receive.
Kerry C. Williams and George E. Veomett describe the principles of
and requirements for the active learning of science and identify
key ingredients for students and their development as young
scientists. Educators will find examples, questions, and stories
inviting them to construct meaning from the text. Based largely on
the High/Scope preschool project as adapted for primary students,
the book connects to research on cognitive and neural development
and motivational theory from the work of Piaget and Vygotsky, and
from the teaching experiences of the authors. Based on the
perspective that the teaching of science is about three things:
knowing content, knowing children, and teachers knowing themselves
as teachers and learners, this handbook invites educators to think
about what it means to teach science in a way that will make a
lasting difference in children's lives.
