"Arguing from Evidence in Middle School Science is filled with easy, fun ideas for incorporating many of the Next Generation Science Standards into any science class. Every step―from establishing class norms to evaluating completed student work―is covered in detail and will help teachers set their room up as a place of thoughtful and constructive questioning and argumentation."
Author: Phil Keck, Middle School Science Teacher"This research-based resource includes activities that make it easy for teachers to incorporate argumentation into their science classrooms. It will get your students actively engaged in meaningful discussions―and help them develop the skills they need to truly engage in the practice of argumentation in science."
Author: Melissa Miller, Science Educator"This book provides both the background and ‘baby steps’ needed to integrate argumentation into the science classroom, and it provides clear lessons to engage students in critical thinking. Each lesson is presented with consistency, scaffolding the student experience from beginning suggestions, to getting students to make claims, to having them provide evidence to support their claims."
