  Shows how to bring inquiry into the elementary and middle school science classroom. More than 140 inquiry activities in physical, life, earth, and space science are presented. The primary focus is on the 5E Model (5 phases include engage, explore, explain, elaborate and evaluate), an instructional model that reflects the NSES Science as Inquiry Standards. Grade ranges are indicated for all activities. Physical science activities: properties of matter; motion and forces; sound; temperature and heat; light; magnetism; electricity. Life science activities: characteristics of organisms; organisms and their environments; structures and functions of human systems. Earth and space science activities: structure of the Earth; atmosphere, weather, and climate of Earth; the Earth's oceans; viewing the sky from Earth. Authors are Joel E. Bass, Terry L. Contant, and Arthur A. Carin. For gr K-8.
