A Description of and Progress Report on The Unit Box Approach: A Novel Facet of Elementary School Science and Mathematics Teacher Preparation

Batoff, Mitchell E.

School Science and Mathematics, 74, 8, 667-79, Dec 74

As a major part of their science methods course, preservice elementary teachers start with a tested science unit and assemble a box of related manipulatives, audio visuals, worksheets, vocabulary cards, and other materials to be used in implementing the unit. The unit is then (ideally) used in practice teaching. (SD)
