I’m thrilled to announce the release of my latest book with the National Science Teaching Association, and Routledge, Explore-Before-Explain: Designing Active, Evidence-Based Science Lessons!

This guidebook is your resource for creating engaging, evidence-driven science lessons that empower students to build conceptual understanding through active meaning-making.
Using an explore-before-explain instructional sequence, this book helps educators:
- Facilitate hands-on, minds-on investigations of natural phenomena.
- Guide students in identifying patterns and cause-and-effect relationships.
- Promote self-directed learning by focusing on student thinking and sensemaking.
- Align lessons with contemporary science standards while maintaining safety in the classroom.
Whether you’re a K–12 science teacher looking to enhance your curriculum or an administrator seeking research-based strategies for professional development, this book provides practical tools to make science teaching more equitable and impactful.
Learn how to leverage explore-before-explain instruction for both classroom lessons and high-quality professional learning experiences. Let’s reimagine science education together!
