SynopsisIncrease student learning in the inquiry-based science classroom Interactive notebooks allow students to record observations, reflect on learning, and self-assess their work. Packed with student examples, this detaile, Increase student learning in the inquiry-based science classroom! Interactive notebooks allow students to record observations, reflect on learning, and self-assess their work. Packed with student examples, this detaile, Teaching Science With Interactive Notebooks gives science teachers everything they need to incorporate interactive notebooks into classroom teaching and learning. All of the how-to is here for using notebooks to promote deeper student learning, critical and scientific thinking, and reinforcement of learning throughout the academic year. Kellie Marcarelli covers everything from rationale, procedures, organization, optimal use to propel student processing, thinking, learning, and metacognition, to how to explain the process to students and model it for them, to related classroom management, time management, assessment, and homework. A special segment on "accountable talk" also shows teachers how to develop the patterns of scientific discussion through classroom discourse that provide grounding for students' notebook entries. This book can enrich learning in any science classroom and supports the effort to make students the owners of their own learning. Interactive notebooks are natural differentiators that allow students to learn standards-based content and demonstrate that learning in individualized ways., "Easy to read, with good examples and illustrations. The rationale is spelled out for every step, the setup for the interactive notebook is clearly explained, and you can hear the enthusiasm of the author, which makes the reader enthusiastic about trying the strategy." --Maria Mesires, Seventh-Grade Science TeacherCase Middle School, Watertown, NY "In an era when science teachers are being asked more and more to teach writing skills and build science literacy, this book presents an engaging and creative way to answer that challenge and encourage the use of higher-order thinking skills." --Michael Baker, Eighth-Grade Science TeacherMemorial Middle School, Albany, OR Increase student learning in the inquiry-based science classroom! Interactive notebooks allow students to record and analyze observations, reflect on their learning, and self-assess their work. Teaching Science With Interactive Notebooks gives educators a step-by-step process for introducing interactive notebooks to students and using notebooks to develop students communication skills, cognitive organization skills, and sense of responsibility for their own learning. Packed with examples from actual student notebooks, this detailed guide explains the unique features that make interactive notebooks more effective tools than conventional notebooks for science classrooms. This resource: Describes the nuts and bolts of implementing interactive notebooks, including execution, time management, and grading Uses the 5E Learning Cycle (engage, explore, elaborate, extend, evaluate) as the framework for science instruction Emphasizes the importance of writing in science and provides strategies for modeling effective writing Explores strategies to encourage collaborative student inquiry and foster whole-class discussions By implementing interactive notebooks in your classroom, you can gain deeper insight into each students understanding, learning progress, and thinking!, Teaching Science With Interactive Notebooks gives science teachers everything they need to incorporate interactive notebooks into classroom teaching and learning.
