Doing What Scientists Do, Second Edition: Children Learn To Investigate Their World [Paperback]

This is a splendid, down-to-earth book-especially for elementary teachers who want to do science but are unsure how to go about it. The intensity of children's interest is unmistakable. And Ellen's low-key style reassures the reader that children in any classroom can do work that is just as fine. -Eleanor Duckworth, Harvard University

I want to embolden teachers who are uncertain about teaching science, and encourage others to give children's observations a central place in the curriculum.

-Ellen Doris
