Cooperative Learning & Science

Inspire the next generation of scientists! The science standards inform us what key concepts we should teach our students across four science domains. This book has ready-to-use activities and ideas focusing on those core ideas in life science, earth science, physical science and engineering and technology. But the standards do more than tell us what students should learn, they call for scientific practices including communication, collaboration, inquiry and problem-solving. The activities in this book are all based on cooperative, interactive structures that have students work in pairs and in teams to build, deepen and apply their science knowledge. Through interaction, students explore science at a deeper level and have more fun doing it! Stimulate students’ interest in science with these ready-to-go, engaging activities.
