SmartPLAN
Models
There are two components to this section. The first is a group of
several SmartPLAN Models that exemplify integrative science/math
lessons for elementary school use. Note that the plans are keyed to
both science and mathematics standards and include science and math
skills and content.
All of the SmartPLANS include children's literature components,
providing a unique opportunity to link science and math with
reading, thereby enhancing all.
The second component is a list of Instruction Links including
hundreds more good lessons that either are now usable for helping
to teach integrative science and mathematics or which can easily be
adapted.

Instruction Links |
The
following Instruction Links are intended to provide ideas,
information, and guidance for teaching inquiry science from early
Primary Grades through Grade 6. Most include lesson plans that are
teacher friendly and applicable to elementary school classrooms.
Many already include science process or investigative skills,
inquiry, and/or design technology. Those that do not may be modified
to achieve those characteristics. So, if you are looking for ideas
for teaching active, hands-on, minds-on science about a myriad of
topics from magnets to microscopes or seeds to stars or owls to
oobleck, you'll find them here...along with "how-to-do-it" plans
plus hundreds of other neat ideas on a wide range of topics. We
think you'll enjoy exploring these links.

eclectic, and a bit eccentric like its developer, Uncle Earl, the
site is a goldmine of outstanding resources for teachers. Be sure to
explore the boxes for Resources for Teachers, Parents, and Kids and
the Big, Big Categorized Resource Collection. See especially the
references on science resources including (1) Lesson Plan and Lab
Activities, (2) Science, Technology, and Society including
inventions and design challenges for kids, (3) Life and
Environmental Science, and many, many more. |
