Book Description
What types of instructional experiences help K-8 students learn science with understanding? What do science educators, teachers, teacher leaders, science specialists, professional development staff, curriculum designers, and school administrators need to know to create and support such experiences? Ready, Set, Science! guides the way with an account of the groundbreaking and comprehensive synthesis of research into teaching and learning science in kindergarten through eighth grade. Based on the recently released National Research Council report Taking Science to School: Learning and Teaching Science in Grades K-8, this book summarizes a rich body of findings from the learning sciences and builds detailed cases of science educators at work to make the implications of research clear, accessible, and stimulating for a broad range of science educators. Ready, Set, Science! is filled with classroom case studies that bring to life the research findings and help readers to replicate success. Most of these stories are based on real classroom experiences that illustrate the complexities that teachers grapple with every day. They show how teachers work to select and design rigorous and engaging instructional tasks, manage classrooms, orchestrate productive discussions with culturally and linguistically diverse groups of students, and help students make their thinking visible using a variety of representational tools. This book will be an essential resource for science education practitioners and contains information that will be extremely useful to everyone �including parents �directly or indirectly involved in the teaching of science.

Book Description
For the majority of students, the skills and work habits crucial to successful learning are not in place when they arrive at the school door. These skills must be explicitly taught by teachers who recognize the unique learning styles, preferences, and interests of their students. Ready, Set, Learn focuses on the importance of encouraging students to set their own learning goals and persevere to achieve them. It illustrates ways in which every lesson can be an opportunity for students to develop the skills and strategies they need in order to learn. Along with organizers, prompts, and specific activities, this timely book presents new ways to plan lessons that explicitly teach key learning skills, including organization, collaboration, communication, independence, memory, and initiative. This remarkable book shows how incorporating learning strategies into everyday work will improve students achievement, and create responsible, independent learners.

Book Description
A Sunday school ministry can be full of challenges. Whether you are a pastor, a professional Christian educator, or a lay Christian education director, Sunday School presents you with a never-ending need to find the right people to teach, equip them to be the best teachers and leaders they can be, and keep them coming back from year to year. Delia Halverson, the country's best hands-on expert in Christian education, knows these needs, and how to fill them. She knows that while people volunteer in Christian education for a variety of reasons, the primary one is relationship with other leaders. She knows how to structure teacher training and equiping in the midst of today's busy lives. She knows how to recognize and encourage the individual talents volunteers bring with them to the Christian education setting. Most importantly, she knows how to share this wisdom and insight with you, so that your Sunday School and Christian education program can succeed in forming faithful disciples of Jesus Christ. Let Halverson and Ready, Set, Teach! be your guide as you work within and for your Sunday School and Christian education ministries.
