It makes explicit the implicit patterns for both science teachers and students. By having a pedagogy that is based on denaturalising the naturalised patterns of meaning-making in science, students are not only successful within a lesson and across many lessons but, critically, are scaffolded into a deeper understanding of scientific knowledge.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eApprenticing Students Into Science: Doing, Talking \u0026amp; Writing Scientifically \u003c\/em\u003efeatures: \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003esample science texts with analyses of their structure, visuals and language\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eexplanations and illustrations of macro-scaffolding, meso-scaffolding and micro-scaffolding\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eexamples of cycles of teaching and learning based on theories of language and thought \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eillustrations of pedagogical resonance -- synchronising the patterns in what is being taught with how it is taught\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eeasy-to-understand-and-use examples of teaching using the language patterns of science.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e John Polias\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0646952609\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780646952604\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Lexis Education\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/10\/2016\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 174\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.94lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 10.00h x 7.00w x 0.45d","brand":"John Polias","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43920414015743,"sku":"9780646952604","price":52.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_097c7bba-97d1-4cca-b715-19fbba0cd3e7.jpg?v=1680815245","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/apprenticing-students-into-science-john-polias-9780646952604","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
