Hello everyone!
Could anybody recommend some nonfiction books for elementary students (and their teachers) that might serve as good precursors to visiting a science center? Specifically, we are looking for books that would relate to gallery experiences involving 1) biological building blocks, networks, and pathways; 2) bioinformatics (huge numbers, patterns in numbers and data, patterns related to health); and 3) nanomedicine (molecular engineering to improve health).
We have designed workshops around these themes and wanted to give recommendations to teachers to better prepare them for their visit should they reserve these programs for their students. Your advice is greatly appreciated!
