Walk your students through this straightforward flowchart for naming ionic compounds, binary molecular compounds, binary acids, and oxyacids. (Check out the video preview for a demo!)

This diagram maps out the exact instructions I use with my tutoring students if they've been overwhelmed or stumped by their chemistry teacher's instructions.

What's included:

• how to tell the difference between an ionic compound and a molecular compound from its formula

• the foolproof way to name ionic compounds:

1. name the cation, considering whether it's monoatomic or polyatomic,

2. name the anion, considering whether it's monoatomic or polyatomic,

3. string the two names together!

• transition-metal exceptions that don't need a Roman numeral in their name (clearly organized so you can cross out the ones that you don't expect your students to know)

• numerical prefixes (1-10) for naming molecular compounds

• color-coded mnemonics to aid in understanding how to construct an acid's name

• the naming quirks for acids with phosphorus and sulfur, so your students don't overlook them!

Suitable for intro high school chemistry, AP Chemistry, IB Chemistry SL/HL, college general chemistry, and MCAT.

Risk-free: if you're not delighted by how useful this study guide is, I'll refund you 100%, no questions asked.

Appreciate this study guide? Rate it 5 stars so that other teachers know it's worth their while!

Make reviewing the life cycle of a bee fun with this engaging hands-on 3d diorama science project! Students learn about the bee life cycle and then they decorate a shoe box based on what they learned! Students are responsible for decorating the box and putting a creative scene inside that represents the life cycle of a bee. Students love it when they get to do projects and make their learning come to life!

Here’s what you’ll get:

• a pre-colored page of a background for students to use as accents.
• a black and white page of a background for students to color themselves and use as accents.
• black and white page representing the life cycle of a bee for students to color, cut, and paste
• rubric for easy grading
• research page for students to record their learning
• planning page for students to map out how they want their diorama to look

What is a diorama?

A diorama is a three-dimensional scene built to illustrate a topic. Dioramas are small scenes created with layers of materials. A diorama can be made out of a shoe box or similar box that includes a variety of information and pictures about a topic.

Students create a diorama by cutting, coloring, painting, and gluing pieces inside the box to create a model that shows a situation, such as a historical event or animals in their natural environment. Students can be encouraged to add real features such as grass, sand, sticks, etc.

The dioramas do not come with specific assembly instructions. Students should learn about the bee life cycle first, and use the pieces within this resource to creatively build their own unique diorama! This is a fun way for students to learn and get hands-on with the lesson/topic.

Prep is quick and easy... print the pieces on cardstock for durability and let your students explore the life cycle of a bee as an enrichment activity to your lesson plan.

Double Bubble Car Wash: Intro. to Problem Solving through Depth and Complexity

The beginning of the year problem-solving activity is designed to engage your students with mathematical reasoning and critical thinking.

Part1:

Open-ended problem with no correct answer as long as students are able to prove their solution with mathematical evidence.

Part II:

Four unique extensions of the original problem using depth and complexity icons.

Can be used with multiple grade levels depending on their multiplication readiness. Originally designed for gifted 5th-grade students.

Solution: While it is likely not possible for a single-lane, single-franchise car wash to produce millions of satisfied customers each year, multiple-lane, multiple-franchise car washes could certainly support their claim.
