Abstract

This poster examines the extent to which teacher language is supported by innovative curriculum materials to engage students in a degree of authentic science practice, specifically looking at lessons which integrate model-based activities. Our findings describe patterns in teacher language during explicit metamodeling instruction, and also describes the ways in which this language appears to be supported by the science curriculum.
