"The Com­mon Core State Stan­dards focus atten­tion on non­fic­tion and the skills nec­es­sary to pro­duce and inter­pret it. The iNK authors have been prac­tic­ing these skills through­out their careers and can pass on their knowl­edge of how to mas­ter them to your stu­dents. Use our books as men­tor texts, hear the author's voice as you learn con­tent, ask us how we con­duct our research and make deci­sions about what to include. Learn as we "unpack" our processes. In order to teach crit­i­cal think­ing, you need to give stu­dents some­thing to think about. So our books are aligned to National Cur­ricu­lum Stan­dards so it's easy to find inspir­ing and infor­ma­tive mate­r­ial on the sub­jects you're required to teach. Authors on Call can col­lab­o­rate with your teach­ers and stu­dents via a series of live, inter­ac­tive video­con­fer­ences so that together, every­one is fully immersed in the joy of learning."

Best Children's Books of the Year, 2012 Center for Children's Literature

From east to west, from the depths of the ocean to the farthest reaches of the universe, good science trade books take us on journeys of the imagination. Each year for the past 39, experienced NSTA educators have joined with the Children's Book Council to identify the very best, selecting from hundreds of nominees and then meeting to consider their accuracy, creativity and the way in which they convey the practices of science. To be called truly outstanding a book must not only excel in those criteria, but also grab the heart of the reader. Each of this year's winners has special value for teachers and their students. Some are ideal for sharing to inspire exploration. Some are perfect for the sort of personal reading that inspires future careers. The list includes outstanding poetry and graphic design-components that lure diverse learning styles to science. There are selections for the very youngest preprimary readers and long, luxurious science fiction novels for young adults. And in the spirit of STEM, there are books that model integration with history, cultures and engineering.

"To help students complete research projects related to school, extra-curricular, work, and personal tasks, we have developed these series of lessons to assist you in teaching skills related to the Google search engine. These lessons are intended for students at a range of grade levels and technological expertise. Since we realize that educators teaching these lessons are varied, we have taken a broad range of factors into consideration. Therefore, we realize some are not adept at accessing the web, might feel uncomfortable teaching the ins and outs of search, or have limited computer or Internet access. To this end, we have written detailed step-by-step lessons, provided Internet links for those with live access or screen shots to print out for those who have limited computers, and include levels of lessons for the various student populations you serve"
