What is Perfect Pairs, K-2 : Using Fiction & Nonfiction Picture Books to Teach Life Science, K-2 about?
<div>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 a lion as it stalks a gazelle, visit the exotic kapok tree in a rain forest, or swim alongside the underwater life in a pond. But they can explore a whole world of animals, plants, and ecosystems through the pages of beautifully illustrated, science-themed picture books.<BR>  <BR><I>Perfect Pairs</I>, which marries fiction and nonfiction picture books focused on life science, helps educators think about and teach life science in a whole new way. Each of the twenty-two lessons in this book is built around a pair of books that introduces a critical life science concept and guides students through an inquiry-based investigative process to explore that idea—from animal/environment interactions to the role of structure in plant and animal survival, from inheritance of traits to variation of species.<BR>  <BR> Each lesson starts with a “Wonder Statement” and comprises three stages. “Engaging Students” features a hands-on activity that captures student interest, uncovers current thinking, and generates vocabulary.
