K - 8

Once you use these multi-level science books, you will never go back to the old way of teaching. These teaching tools bring excitement and creative illustrations to learning. And another great thing about Great Science Adventures is that these books contain reproducible pages for the 'Lots of Science Library Books' your learners create. You won't believe how interested the students are, when using the books they make themselves. Great Science Adventures is an incredible value. Each book contains 24 lessons, with 2-3 lessons completed each week. The unique format contains activities and basic content appropriate for grades K through 8. Perfect for multilevel teaching or if you want to challenge your advanced students individually. You will not find this amount of value in a single science book anywhere. You have seen Dinah Zike in workshops - now bring her into your classroom! Great Science Adventures gives you K through 8 lessons in each book. That's right! Nine levels of exciting science teaching are yours, all in one book. Students use reproducible pages to create "Lots of Science Library Books" and 3D Graphic Organizers that put complicated information in a visual form to increase understanding. These reusable tools extend the life of your materials class after class. Great Science Adventures are Dinah's most practical works yet. Everything you and your students need to do is spelled out in detail. Once you experience the Dinah Zike system, and her "Immersion" method of teaching, you will never go back to the old way.

Great Science Adventures - Earth's Landforms and Surface Features Earth's magnificent landforms, such as mountain ranges, caves, and volcanoes, all begin in the lithosphere, the uppermost mantle and crust of Earth. Students will create a unique 21 Tab Graphic Organizer to record information about the landforms and surface features studied in this book. A Desk Top Project is used throughout the program for students to label record-breaking features. Labs and other activities show students how the forces and power of Earth form these features.
