Many thanks to Meg Griffin of Coldspring, who introduced us to this wonderful book! This fall (2006)every CB elementary teacher will receiving a copy to use as a reference and source of ideas!

 

The Doing Science section is really great, and helps with understanding the nature of science as it can relate to young children!

 

   We have a table (below) that link to the concepts in our K-6 science program to help teachers find the relevant ideas quickly.

      The publisher's page can be found at this link.
