Combining Picturebooks and Poetry as Blended Genres to Teach Earth and Space Science	2025	11	.pdf	application/pdf	4224	480	68	This article builds on and extends this emerging and exciting body of research by 1) presenting blended genres of picture books and poetry to teach earth and space science, 2) reviewing the value of integrating poetry and science, the important relationship between paired text and blended genres, and the connection between blended genres and Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS) and Common Core State Standards (CCSS) Standards, and 3) sharing examples of blended genres and samples of instructional strategies that K–8 teachers can use to help students learn important concepts in earth and space science. It begins by reminding readers about the important relationship between poetry and science, the fundamental differences between paired text and blended genres, and the connection between blended genres and Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS) and Common Core State Standards (CCSS) Standards.	cache/gjl-178.pdf	txt/gjl-178.txt
