Written by teachers for teachers, \u003ci\u003eUniversal Design for Learning Science\u003c\/i\u003e will inspire you to reframe your lessons to reflect how students learn and to support the success of all students.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe book is divided into three parts:\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRethinking instruction. The focus is on the 5E Learning Cycle (engage, explore, explain, extend, and evaluate) and Universal Design for Learning, a systematic way to plan for and support diverse learners. You’ll see how using these two frameworks can provide challenging, inquiry-based experiences for all students that support the Next Generation Science Standards.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLearning by example. Through nine real-world vignettes, current and former teachers provide you with insights for teaching science in general, and in particular to kids with special needs. The teachers spotlight a variety of students—including struggling learners, differently abled students, and those with executive functioning challenges—as they demonstrate how strategies from the frameworks can knock down obstacles to learning.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eApplying the frameworks. Additional resources include practical tools and techniques that work in the classroom, in teacher education contexts, and in professional development workshops.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003eAnd here’s even better news: \u003ci\u003eUniversal Design for Learning Science\u003c\/i\u003e proves that implementing these frameworks doesn’t require adopting a new curriculum. As the authors write, this book shows how you can use your existing curricula and resources while “identifying barriers to learning and possible solutions—in other words, using a sharper knife, a bigger fork, or a deeper spoon to more effectively deal with what’s already on your plate!”","brand":"National Science Teachers Association","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51042083668311,"sku":"9781681406954","price":35.95,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9781681406954.jpg?v=1750952944","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/universal-design-for-learning-science-reframing-elementary-instruction-in-physical-science-9781681406954","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
