Science Instruction in Elementary Classrooms

My name is Amanda Brooks. I am in an Action Research class at Marian University as part of my Masters Degree Program. My research this semester is based on the lack of science in elementary school classrooms and the affect it has on student performance in secondary school. Specifically, the question I am studying is: How can educators put more emphasis on science in the classroom?
 
I have created a short survey. I would appreciate your honest and candid responses to my questions. While I do work as a teacher for Indianapolis Public Schools, the information I collect is solely for my research project. Your name, school, email address, and responses will not be shared with principals or district administration.
