Zusammenfassung

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.

Perfect Pairs, K-2 by Melissa Stewart

Marrying fiction and non-fiction picture books focused on life science, Perfect Pairs 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.
