- Perfect Pairs, 3-5: Using Fiction & Nonfiction Picture Books to Teach Life Science, Grades 3-5
Description
Hands-on lessons can be fun and compelling, but when it comes to life science, they aren't always possible, practical, effective, or safe. Children can't follow wolves as they hunt elk, visit a prehistoric swamp, or shrink down to the size of a molecule and observe photosynthesis firsthand.
