Middle School Science Minute
by Dave Bydlowski (k12science or davidbydlowski@mac.com)
Current Events
I was recently reading the March, 2016 issue of "Science Scope," a magazine written for middle school science teachers, published by the National Science Teachers Association.
In this issue, I read the Editor's Roundtable column entitled, "Spreading the News - With Care!" It was written by Inez Liftig. The article emphasizes the need for teachers to share current science news with students, but to make sure that the news is "grade-appropriate."
