START YOUNG!: EARLY CHILDHOOD SCIENCE ACTIVITIES

Book ID/图书代码： 09653014B72113

English Summary/英文概要： You asked for it---now you’ve got it! In a focus group at a recent NSTA convention, teachers of prekindergarten through second grade clamored for help. They do want easy-to-do science activities they can use for everyday teaching. But they don’t want to be forced to adapt material meant for older children. So here’s the solution. Start Young! offers a wealth of simple educational activities designed to use right away with even the littlest scientists. The book includes a chapter of helpful background on the latest thinking about effective ways to introduce science in early childhood. But the bulk of the book is two dozen articles compiled from Science & Children, NSTA’s award-winning journal for elementary school teachers. Among the topics:

• Playful science activities for young children • The science and mathematics of building structures • Planning a Rock Day • What makes miniature sleds go, go, go • Figuring out how big is big and how big is small • Learning about birds, flight, ponds, and the environment. • Creating science centers for all students

Everyone who works with young children knows how eager they are to see, smell, hear, and touch the world around them. Encourage that natural curiosity while laying a foundation for a lifetime of learning about science. Start Young! is the age-appropriate resource to help you start them off right.

Chinese Summary/中文概要： 你需要它——-现在你已经知道了！在最近一次NSTA会议的焦点小组中，幼儿园老师通过二年级寻求帮助。他们希望有可用于日常教学的易进行的科研活动。但他们不希望被迫去适应适合年龄较大的儿童的材料。因此，这里是解决方案。《从小开始！》提供了甚至小科学家也能使用的丰富的简单教育活动。这本书包括关于用有效的方式来介绍科学早教的最新思想的有用背景的一章。但这本书的大部分是来自“科学&儿童”的二十几篇文章，以及NSTA针对小学教师的获奖期刊。

其中主题：

•针对幼儿的好玩的科学活动 •建筑结构的科学和数学 •规划摇滚节 • 是什么让小型雪橇走，走，走•弄清楚哪种大是大，哪种大是小 •了解鸟类飞行，池塘和环境。•为所有学生建立科学中心

从事幼儿工作的人都知道他们多么渴望看到，闻到，听到和触摸到他们周围的世界。鼓励那些天生的好奇心，同时为学习科学的一生奠定了基础。《从小开始！》是年龄适当的资源来帮助你从现在开始。(LNL)

Awards/获奖情况：A+ 科学思想。这本书代表了地球科学领域的一个伟大的对幼儿学生的教师引导。 它为早期的小学教师和幼儿教师提供了一个美妙的丰富知识。我喜欢这些经过深思熟虑的，有创意，能够与PA标准关联的不同的实践活动。该杂志的文章很容易阅读和理解。这本书我最喜欢的部分是真正的老师写的文章和创建的活动。另外，所有的文章，活动，和更多的经验教训都合并成一本书。 （是的！最后，我发现，包含了所有必要信息的资源。）我觉得这本书是一个很好的阅读，是我们在课堂上教幼小科学的一个非常有用的工具 。——由戴安娜C（钱伯斯堡，宾夕法尼亚州）于2009年6月24日评论

A+ Science Ideas. This book represents a great teacher guide in the field of Earth Science for early childhood students. It provides a wonderful wealth of knowledge for early elementary teachers as well as pre-school teachers. I love the different hands-on activities that are well thought out, creative, and able to correlate with the PA standards. The journal articles are easy to read and understand. My favorite part about this book is that real teachers wrote the articles and created the activities. Plus, all of the articles, activities, and additional lessons are all combined into one book. (Yes! Finally, I have found a resource that contains all the necessary information and nothing extra.) I feel that this book is a great read and a highly useful tool in regards to teaching science to the young minds in our classroom. --Reviewed by: Diana C (Chambersburg, PA) on June 24, 2009
