Like three guides in one, Scientific Argumentation in Biology combines theory, practice, and biological content. This thought-provoking book starts by giving you solid background in why students need to be able to go beyond expressing mere opinions when making research-related biology claims. Then it provides 30 field-tested activities your students can use when learning to propose, support, and evaluate claims; validate or refute them on the basis of scientific reasoning; and craft complex written arguments. Detailed teacher notes suggest specific ways to use the activities to enrich and supplement (not replace) what you're doing in class already. You'll find Scientific Argumentation to be an ideal way to help your students learn standards-based content, improve their practices, and develop scientific habits of mind.

The 15 field-tested lessons cover energy, waves and their application in technologies for information transfer, molecules and organisms, and Earth's place in the universe and systems. Your students will explore questions ranging from how you can make an electrical car move faster to why big waves block the entrance to some New Zealand harbors.

The reproducible student pages in Argument-Driven Inquiry in Fifth-Grade Science have been extracted for your convenience and re-packaged as a classroom-ready tool for students-Student Workbook for Argument-Driven Inquiry in Fifth-Grade Science. Use it to help your elementary students learn the practices of science, including constructing explanations and engaging in argument from evidence. The workbook is divided into two basic parts: 1. An overview of how students will actively and safely engage in three-dimensional learning-including an introduction to the practices, crosscutting concepts, and core ideas; a list of safety rules; and a safety acknowledgment form. 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. Students will 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? For instructional support, you can consult the teacher book (ADI in Fifth-Grade Science), which includes an introduction to ADI, detailed teacher notes for each investigation, peer-review guides, teacher scoring rubrics, and more!
