Hands-On Science for Manitoba is filled with a year’s worth of classroom-tested activities. The grade-three book is divided into four units: * Growth and Changes in Plants * Materials and Structures * Forces that Attract or Repel * Soils in the Environment This new edition includes many familiar features for both teachers and students: curriculum correlation charts; background information on the science topics; complete, easy-to-follow lesson plans; digital reproducible student materials; materials lists; and hands-on, student-centred activities. Useful new features include: * the components of an inquiry-based approach * a four-part instructional process—engage, explore, embed, and enhance * ideas for embedding Indigenous knowledge, multicultural connections, and real-world application * an emphasis on technology and sustainability infused into all units * a fully developed assessment plan that includes opportunities for assessment for, as, and of learning * a focus on the design process to solve real-life practical problems * inclusion of learning centres that focus on multiple intelligences and universal design for learning (UDL) Download the FREE digital resources that accompany this book by following the instructions printed on the Access Digital Resources page.
