An Integrated Approach to Teaching Science and Math Through Children's Literature : By Carol M. Butzow and John W. Butzow

The emphasis of this book will be lesson plans for teachers to use with children grades k-4 in which science and mathematics are simultaneously taught using children's literature as the basis.

These lessons will reflect and reference accepted standards for teaching science and mathematics for the intended grade levels.

Emphasis will be on methods of inquiry for both of the disciplines of science and mathematics appropriate to the age of the students.

In many cases the selected children's literature will deal with major issues in science and mathematics which changed the course of how those disciplines are studied.

These may include: the Galilean Revolution, the discovery of genetics, evolution, physical geography and navigation, etc.

There will be approximately 25 chapters.
