Many ecological, environmental, and life science concepts are explored. Students learn biological sampling techniques; mapping and related mathematical skills are developed. In addition to temporarily collecting samples in "shake boxes," investigations focus on ants and spiders, and can be extended in many directions. Students learn that a bush may be home to a "community" of interacting plants and animals. Based on their observations and findings, students select a small area as their favorite location. Environmental writing about their favorite locations crowns the closing activity. This guide is designed to spark student curiosity about the patterns and interactions in nature, beginning with their immediate environment-the schoolyard. TABLE OF CONTENTS: Introduction Time Frame Activity 1 Exploring the Schoolyard Study Area Activity 2 Finding and Observing Spiders Tales from the Web Activity 3 Discovering Animal Communities Activity 4 Tracking Ants Activity 5 Special Study Sites Behind the Scenes Guide to small Common Schoolyard Animals Spider Web Identification key Resources Assessment Suggestions Literature Connections Summary Outlines "In this era of hype about hands-on activities, the school yard is too often given short shrift, except for occasional nature walks.... The book, a product of a team effort, underwent extensive tryout and review by teachers and specialists, and it shows."-"Science Books & Films," August/September "Overall this is a very thorough presentation of five excellentecological activities for children. This is the way science should be taught. The investigations encourage children to learn by "doing" and to discover for themselves how organisms interact with each other and their environment. The activities are also invaluable because they foster in children an appreciation and stewardship for other living things. If they can be taught to value spiders and ants, the rest will be easy."-"The American Biology Teacher," May

Drifting Continents and Shifting Theories: The Modern

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Le Grand, H. E., PUBLISHER: Cambridge University Press, This innovative book uses the story of how a modern science achieved its present shape and focus to introduce the question of the nature of scientific change and its philosophical analysis. The "modern revolution in geology" of the s and s saw the triumph of the global theory of plate tectonics, and decisive turning point in fifty years' controversy and competition first sparked in by Wegener's proposal of continenta drift. Here, Professor Le Grand interweaves a history of this episode of scientific change with reflective discussions of its historical, philosophical, and social circumstances, and of the development of science more generally. The approach of the book is exploratory; the reader is encouraged to be an active participant--to use the historical narrative to understand and criticize some of the more recent, influential ideas about science and scientists, to draw conclusions, and especially to pose questions about how and why changes occur in scientific knowledge and practice.
