What does it look like to use living books for elementary science? In this episode, we'll be chatting about what you need for elementary science and what it looks like when you use a living book as your main source of information.
Key Takeaways
- Living books are definitely excellent tools we can use to accomplish the goals for elementary science.
- Remember, with living books, we're creating a relationship with the knowledge. So we want these narrations and these written and notebook pages to be a personal record of what the student has learned. For the first three days you're reading and writing and you're doing, you're getting those three keys done. Then if you want to add in extra projects, you can do those on the next two days.
