Been blessed to have Mia as our science lecturer this semester. She has provided amazing resources for us! This will document the resources given by her...
In the QUT Library catalogue, for information on science teaching teaching ideas :-
Science Study and Teaching Early Education or Science Study and Teaching Primary into the search bar under keywords. Some of the ideas will be for preschool or very young children in ECEC, and some for early years primary education.
Many general science education books are also available :-
Bell, R. (2008). Teaching the nature of science through process skills.
Brooks, J. et al (2010). Big science for growing minds.
Johnson, J. (2005). Early explorations in science.
Rutledge, N. (2009). Primary science: Teaching the tricky bits. e-book.
Wade, H. (2008). Teaching science in the primary classroom.
Some information on science and tech in ECEC for very young children is in general EC texts e.g. on heuristic play, block play, play and pedagogy.
For further information on science content, you can use books meant for lower secondary school students, or science books for teachers:-
For lower secondary school students
Williamson, K. & Garton, A. (2007) Science essentials
Stannard, P. & Williamson, K. (2000) - see e-book
Forte, I. (2002) Science concepts and processes
O'Toole, M et al (1999) Science skills.
For teachers
Brenner, L. (2005). Science essentials.
Deverua, J. (2007). Science for primary and early years: Developing subject knowledge.
