Science in Latin means “to know,” and, in the case of current scientific approaches, it can be thought of as both process and content. Understanding science concepts is an important precursor to facilitating the instruction of science. As a teacher, it is important to learn methods and strategies to help facilitate investigation, exploration, and discovery of scientific concepts in your classroom.

That can be used to mentor new teachers and/or to present to colleagues. Discuss inquiry-based learning and explore methods to facilitate investigation, exploration, and discovery of scientific concepts.
