Discovering DesertsJanuary 17, 2006 I am a high school special education teacher for developmentally delayed students. We did a unit on deserts. This book help me organize/develop age-appropriate lessons and worksheets for the students. The pictures/illustrations were helpful also.
Wonderful ResourceJuly 26, 2003 This is a great book for teachers who will have to teach anything science related. Every book put out by the National Wildlife Federation is great.
There are lessons that provide art and craft ideas to help bring home the lesson that you are trying to teach. There are recipes for clay and food that you can use to help teach about deserts. There are facts to share and bulliton board ideas and more. There are copy sheets for worksheets and more.
The directions are clear. The books are easy to read and fit a large amount of information provided in a format that makes it easy to find when you are looking for something in particular.
Enjoy.
A book every science teacher needsMay 18, 2003 I used this book while teaching a unit on biomes in my High School Special Education Resource Science classroom. Discovering Deserts has exactly the right mix of factual material and hands-on activities needed to appeal to a wide range of ability levels, ages, and learning styles. The materials totally engaged my students' interest. This is a really useful resource and I plan to purchase other books in this series.
