Teaching
About Evolution and the Nature of Science
Grades K–12
As readable as it is rational, this comprehensive book starts by telling what to teach about evolution and why. Then it shows you how. Early chapters present a well-structured framework for understanding and teaching evolution, plus a series of fictional dialogues between teachers to illustrate problems and solutions involved in covering the topic. Later the book provides answers to frequently asked questions on evolution, plus eight activities, complete with background, classroom materials, and step-by-step presentations.
