The Acadia Files is a fun introduction to the wonders of science, using real-world scenarios to make scientific inquiry relatable and understandable. Parents and educators can use The Acadia Files to let kids discover for themselves what it’s like to be curious about the world and to satisfy that curiosity with scientific thinking.\u003cbr\u003e\nThe Acadia Files: Book One, Summer Science offers an engaging new way to apply the scientific method to real-world scenarios.\u003cbr\u003e\nGreat for teaching STEAM\u003cbr\u003e\nAcadia Greene wants answers. Who keeps stealing her blueberries just as they ripen on the bushes? Why is her hair curly? Why does the sun wake her up so early in the summer? Why does the tide submerge her sandcastles? How do rocks become sand? Acadia doesn’t set out to do science, but she has these important questions and her scientist parents refuse to simply feed her the answers. “Conduct an experiment,” they tell her. “Use the scientific method.” So Acadia gathers evidence, makes hypotheses, designs experiments, uses the results to test her hypotheses, and draws conclusions. Acadia does science.\u003cbr\u003e\nAcadia Files for autumn, winter, and spring will follow on future lists.\u003cbr\u003e\nThe author, Katie Coppens writes a recurring column for NSTA's middle school magazine Science Scope on science and literacy called \"The Integrated Classroom.\"\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nSpot color\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eEAN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780884486015\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePackage Dimensions:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.2 x 6.2 x 0.4 inches\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguages:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Tilbury House Publishers","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52761201148202,"sku":"088448601X","price":21.46,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0932\/6936\/0938\/files\/71ZwX5KVbeL.jpg?v=1790446194","url":"https:\/\/neartisan.com\/products\/the-acadia-files-book-one-summer-science-acadia-science-series-1","provider":"SeasonalMaine.com [New England Artisan]","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
