What is the connection between literacy and science learning? How does knowledge in one area affect learning in the other? How can you provide meaningful science-literacy connections for your students? This collection answers these questions and more so that you can balance instruction to maximize your students' learning.

Pappas go beyond the links between science and language to help you comprehend the complex relationship between the two areas of study. Understanding this complex relationship is the first step in transforming your teaching practice.
