Activites That Inspire

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

Do you ever feel like your science classes could use a shot of imagination? Boost the creativity quotient by assigning a travel blog about the digestive system, a packing list for the planets, or an interview with an atom. You'll inspire students to be better writers while you enjoy new strategies to assess their scientific understanding. That's the idea behind Creative Writing in Science. This classroom resource book features K12 activities that integrate writing with content in life science, Earth and space sciences, and engineering and physical sciences.

You can tell a teacher wrote the book because it's so flexible and classroom friendly. Each of the 15 science activities comes with strategies for teaching a creative writing style, whether prose or poetry. The assignments work as in-class activities, homework, or final assessments for a unit. Also included are reproducible handouts, graphic organizers, writing models, scoring rubrics, and connections to the Next Generation Science Standards and Common Core State Standards. See for yourself how rewarding it can be to combine two vital subjects into one class. Get your students started on their phytoplankton comic right away!
