biology for elementary students: Life Arthur E. Shipley, 2015-06-28 Excerpt from Life: A Book for Elementary Students A year ago the University Press asked me to write a book which would make students of elementary Biology think. I do not know in the least whether I have succeeded in doing so. The average schoolboy, especially at the age when he usually begins to study Biology, is strongly of the opinion that thinking is but an idle waste of thought, and with few exceptions he turns away from the advice of one of the wisest and worldliest of our teachers. Of all the truths do not decline that of thinking. The host of mankind can hardly be said to think, as Lord Chesterfield wrote to his son. What I have tried to do in this book is to emphasize the unity of life, whether it be plant-life or animal-life, and the interrelation of living organisms one with another and with their surroundings. The crayfish with its scaphognathites and dactylopodites, and the fresh-water mussel with its ctenidia and its osphradia do not live self-contained lives tucked away in water-tight compartments. They are in intimate relation with the whole world of other plants and animals and with their physical surroundings. The dead dogfish in a dissecting dish gives one but little idea of what it did and of what happened to it when it was alive. I have tried to bring out the fact that plants and animals are at one in being alive, and I have tried to make clear the intimate association of both with their environment, whether it be the air 01* the soil or the sea. The whole of life is so interwoven and interconnected that the type-system, however well it may teach us the rudiments of Anatomy, gives a totally inadequate representation of life.

biology for elementary students: Lessons in Elementary Biology T. Jeffery Parker, 2015-06-16 Excerpt from Lessons in Elementary Biology In the early part of 1897, my brother and I had arranged to collaborate in writing a practical text-book of Elementary Zoology, adapted more particularly to the requirements of Students pursuing courses in the subject as laid down by various examining bodies. We had, however, only reached the stage of deciding on a general plan at the time of my brother's death in November of the same year. The following are the chief points on which we had agreed: - 1. To adopt the method pursued in Huxley and Martin's Elementary Biology of giving a connected account of each example. 2. To give brief practical directions which should serve mainly as a guide, the student being able to refer, in case of difficulty, to the descriptive accounts preceding them. 3. In the larger animals, to arrange for as much work as possible to be done on one specimen: there is much to be said in favour of this plan apart from the fact that the average student cannot give sufficient time to the subject to dissect a fresh specimen for each system of organs.

biology for elementary students: Molecular Radiation Biology Hermann Dertinger, Horst Jung, 2013-11-09 There can hardly be any doubt that radiation will continue to be an im portant factor in our lives. Present and future advances in atomic tech nology urgently require further work on research and development in the field of radiation biology if the maximum benefit is to be obtained at minimal risk from the various kinds of radiation that form a major by product of nuclear processes. Consequently, it is also necessary to prepare students and younger scientists for doing such work. The present book originates from teaching experience gained in lectures, seminars, and discussion groups started by the undersigned in 1957 and more recently held together with Drs. Dertinger and Jung. The friendly comments given to the German edition made us feel that it might be worth while to put the results of our efforts at the disposal of those to whom English is more familiar. In agreement with the view, based on well-known facts, that most if not aIl of the more striking practical achievements have resulted from patient and careful investigations into some basic problem, the book aims at introducing the reader to the methods of thought and experiment used in molecular radiation biology as weIl as to the results obtained thereby. |

How do children learn about science and how to do science? Drawing on a vast array of work from neuroscience to classroom observation, Taking Science to School provides a comprehensive picture of what we know about teaching and learning science from kindergarten through eighth grade. By looking at a broad range of questions, this book provides a basic foundation for guiding science teaching and supporting students in their learning. Taking Science to School answers such questions as: When do children begin to learn about science? Are there critical stages in a child's development of such scientific concepts as mass or animate objects? What role does nonschool learning play in children's knowledge of science? How can science education capitalize on children's natural curiosity? What are the best tasks for books, lectures, and hands-on learning? How can teachers be taught to teach science? The book also provides a detailed examination of how we know what we know about children's learning of scienceâ€about the role of research and evidence. This book will be an essential resource for everyone involved in K-8 science educationâ€teachers, principals, boards of education, teacher education providers and accreditors, education researchers, federal education agencies, and state and federal policy makers.

biology for elementary students: The Teaching of Biology Ethel M. Poulton, 2022-12-15 First published in 1931, the original blurb reads: A practical handbook for those who are engaged in teaching elementary biology (Nature Study) to children of 10-13 years. Part I is devoted to general methods of teaching the subject. Part II consists of subject matter suitable for lessons, together with suggestions as to practical work and classroom procedure. It was hoped that this work would help the move away from the tradition, still prevalent at the time, where observation of minute details and absence of associated physiological work left the children with little interest in the subject. This book would contribute to a type of teaching where more regard was paid to the ‘livingness’ of the organism, resulting in the deepening of the pupil’s enjoyment of the beauty of animate nature. Today it can be read in its historical context. |

biology for elementary students: Audubon's Birds of America Coloring Book John James Audubon, 1974-01-01 Including the red-winged blackbird, painted bunting, wood duck, great blue heron, ruby-throated hummingbird, purple finch, and blue jay, 46 different species of birds from all parts of the United States are included in this book. The pictures have been faithfully redrawn by Paul E. Kennedy from originals by John James Aububon (1785-1851), the most famous American painter-naturalist. For each species, the caption supplies the modern common and scientific names and the current range (by general region). No distinction is made between breeding range and winter range. Only the area of the United States, exclusive of Alaska and Hawaii, is considered. The birds shown are usually adult males when the caption does not give the information on age and sex. Audubon's original plates, numbered to correspond to the pages of the book, have been reproduced in color on the covers. If you follow them, you will not only have a great deal of coloring pleasure, but you will also learn how to identify many important birds. |
