Today’s teacher has a multitude to accomplish each day. How do we fit it all in? In this session, we share how using rich, inquiry-based learning will not only build science knowledge but also the skills needed to increase language comprehension.
We build on principles from the language comprehension side of Scarborough’s Reading Rope as we introduce, explore, and make sense of science concepts in today’s classroom. Learn how three-dimensional science teaching and learning provides meaningful context to develop language comprehension. A lesson from the FOSS program will be used to provide context for our learning.
