Description
The standards-based lessons in this slim volume serve as an introduction to environmental science for young learners. Hop Into Action helps teach children about the joy of amphibians through investigations that involve scientific inquiry and knowledge building. Twenty hands-on learning lessons can be used individually or as a yearlong curriculum. Each lesson is accompanied by detailed objectives, materials lists, background information, step-by-step procedures, evaluation questions, assessment methods, and additional web resources. The activities can be integrated into other disciplines such as language arts, physical education, art, and math and are adaptable to informal learning environments. --from publisher description.
