Literacy in the
Science Classroom
Millie Blandford
• Co-op available
To gain a deep understanding of scientific concepts and to
work well with a variety of science processes, students must
develop essential skills that allow them to read, write, listen
to, and speak about scientific texts and presentations. Lit-
eracy in the Science Classroom is a handy tool to improve
science instruction that integrates science and literacy with
a variety of fun, engaging activities and games designed to
hone students’ skills. Such literacy and science experiences
are connected to Common Core State Standards, Next
Generation Science Standards, and offer valuable support
for any college- and career-readiness standards.
Millie Blandford is a National Board Certified educator in
science, with experience teaching middle school science for
11 years and high school freshmen science for six years.
She is the author of Science and Math in Motion and
Teaching the Scientific Method. She is the recipient of nu-
merous awards, including a Who’s Who Among America’s
Teachers Award, and is currently the vice principal of a
middle school. She lives in Springfield, Kentucky.
