PBS Teacher Source � Science Classroom Video Link
The description below is a direct quote from the site. I couldn't say
it any better. What I can say is that I believe you will find it very
worthwhile to review some of the clips to hear the comments of
elementary teachers on many of the same issues we have discussed in
class this quarter. I believe you will find it well worth your time to
peruse this site. This site is actually part of the PBS site.
Name of page: Scienceline Classroom Video Index
PBS Scienceline videos show real teachers in a variety of elementary
school classrooms modeling standards-based instruction and reflecting on
their teaching practices. Scienceline videos focus on skills and
techniques tied to inquiry teaching, and educators of all grades should
benefit from observing the elementary school classrooms.
Each link below will help you find a Scienceline Video clip on that
topic, complete with written descriptions, discussion questions, and
links to the FREE Scienceline online discussion area, where you can
discuss the videos with other teachers or simply read what others think.http://www.pbs.org/teachersource/scienceline/video.shtm
