What types of instructional experiences help K-8 students learn
science with understanding? What do science educators, teachers,
teacher leaders, science specialists, professional development
staff, curriculum designers, and school administrators need to know
to create and support such experiences? Ready, Set, Science! guides
the way with an account of the groundbreaking and comprehensive
synthesis of research into teaching and learning science in
kindergarten through eighth grade. Based on the recently released
National Research Council report Taking Science to School: Learning
and Teaching Science in Grades K-8, this book summarizes a rich
body of findings from the learning sciences and builds detailed
cases of science educators at work to make the implications of
research clear, accessible, and stimulating for a broad range of
science educators. Ready, Set, Science! is filled with classroom
case studies that bring to life the research findings and help
readers to replicate success. Most of these stories are based on
real classroom experiences that illustrate the complexities that
teachers grapple with every day. They show how teachers work to
select and design rigorous and engaging instructional tasks, manage
classrooms, orchestrate productive discussions with culturally and
linguistically diverse groups of students, and help students make
their thinking visible using a variety of representational tools.
This book will be an essential resource for science education
practitioners and contains information that will be extremely
useful to everyone A-A'A1/2including parents A-A'A1/2directly or
indirectly involved in the teaching of science.

Monster Machine that brings to life the gang's past enemies -
including the 10,000 Volt Ghost, Captain Cutler and The Creeper -

monster...
Sarah Michelle Gellar wanted her kids to love different types of
food and spend time with them, too. She realized if they were
involved with the process of making food, they'd eat it more
readily. Why stop with making healthy brownies when you could
decorate them? Or put them on a stick? Why just cook broccoli, when
we can make broccoli bread pudding cups? The book is organized by
month with fun projects for everything from Super Bowl parties to
Valentine's Day and Halloween. There is even a Star Wars Day full
of licensed Star Wars designs! Anyone--even fear of crafting
moms--can make amazing food their kids will want to share and eat.
By getting kids in the kitchen and encouraging exploration, the
possibilities are endless!
