Science Education Through Multiple Literacies explores how the use of project-based learning in elementary science education fosters a lifelong scientific mindset in students. The book provides educators with the teaching practices to help students develop an overall science literacy that aligns with Next Generation Science Standards. The book presents compelling case studies of Multiple Literacies in Project-Based Learning, demonstrating how teachers use these practices and how teachers' enactment transforms the classroom into an environment that builds and supports students' academic and social emotional learning. Representing both urban and suburban schools, the case studies include classroom observations, student and teacher interviews, and student artifacts to illustrate how to make science relevant in students' lives.Science Education Through Multiple Literacies provides the necessary elements to transform science teaching and learning so that students develop the skills to navigate with confidence through our complex world. "This volume makes a major contribution to addressing the long neglected topic of elementary science education. The cases, based on real classrooms, vividly illustrate how project-based learning can bring science alive for young children. This book will be an invaluable resource for science educators engaged in the messy work of transforming elementary science across the country." --Heidi Schweingruber, director, Board on Science Education, The National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine "Science Education Through Multiple Literacies is a much-needed book that shows how elementary educators can launch and sustain quality project-based science learning that is inclusive, accessible, and social. It's a valuable guide for those looking to enable elementary students of all grades and backgrounds to feel included, empowered, and interested to learn science." --Christopher J.
