I teach a pre-service geosciences course for ElEd majors called “Earth:
Its Physical Environment”, along with an earth science teaching methods seminar.
Much of what I do is inquiry-based (they want to be teachers after all) and I
have found terrific resources on the SERC site.

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

Subject: geoscience courses for elementary teachers
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?
