If it is of any use, I had a Electronic Journal of
Science Education paper out a year or two ago on
geoscience inquiry.  It is more middle-secondary in
orientation:

  All:
  Email David if you know of a "Geoscience By
  Inquiry" or similar curriculum. I think I've heard
  of someone working on this, but can't remember
  who!
  CC the list, too, if you don't mind - I'd like to
  know!
  Take care

    Julie,

    Are there any curricula available for geoscience
    courses specifically designed for preservice
    elementary teachers? I'm thinking about
    something that would be analogous to Physics by
    Inquiry, or Physics and Everyday Thinking. Do
    you know people who are teaching such courses in
    earth and/or space science?
