Ancient relics--stone tools, bones, footprints, and even DNA--offer many clues about our human ancestors and how they lived.

The stories move through time, following the lives of long-ago hominins through the eyes of their children. Each carefully researched chapter is based on an a...
Terrarium Habitats
"The guide includes concise and interesting biological information on a number of possible small organisms (sow bugs, isopods, earthworms, snails...) that can become terrarium inhabitants. Students observe these and other terrarium components and record changes over time. There are detailed instructions on setting up and maintaining the terrariums. Special features include an optional soil-profile test for older students, and making "decomposition bags" to learn more about the natural life cycle."
Resources for Teaching Elementary School Science
What activities might a teacher use to help children explore the life cycle of butterflies? What does a science teacher need to conduct a "leaf safari" for students? Where can children safely enjoy hands-on experience with life in an estuary?

Educators will find a wealth of information and expert guidance to meet this need in Resources for Teaching Elementary School Science. A completely revised edition of the best-selling resource guide Science for Children: Resources for Teachers, this new book is an annotated guide to hands-...
