Miss
Frizzle® from the Magic School Bus® urges kids learning
science to "Take chances! Make mistakes! Get
messy!" Good teachers take that advice seriously.
Science is not just a collection of facts. It's a way of
looking at the world, asking questions, and solving
problems. You'll learn how to teach science to preserve
children's sense of wonder, perhaps rekindling your own
curiosity, too.

Center, and web sites on the internet. Take chances! Make
mistakes! Get messy!
