SchoolsMovingUp – “Critical Science Vocabulary”
| April 30, 2007 1:30 pm | to | April 30, 2008 3:00 pm |
If the concepts and vocabulary of science are not taught in grades one through four, students in middle school and beyond will be faced with an inordinate number of challenging words, representing complex and unknown concepts. In this presentation, Elfrieda H. Hiebert, Adjunct Professor at the University of California at Berkeley, will discuss the need to make science vocabulary education a priority in grades one through four.
