Monhardt, Leigh; Monhardt, Rebecca
Early Childhood Education Journal, v34 n1 p67-71 Aug 2006
This article provides suggestions on ways in which science process skills can be taught in a meaningful context through children's literature. It is hoped that the following examples of how process skills can be taught using children's books will provide a starting point from which primary teachers can create additional examples. Many possibilities exist within the world of children's literature to develop process skills in a meaningful way.
