Properties of Matter

Teachers, parents, and educators of all kinds - welcome to my classroom! Here within these pages, and in fact this entire series, are lessons and activities that I have created and used with my own students over the years presented in an easy-to-use format. Through trial and error, hardship and success, I have learned how to present the difficult world of introductory chemistry to students in scalable terms, ways that lend themselves to a wide variety of learners. So, if you teach in a small class, large class, average class, have ESL or SPED, or even if you are homeschooling, you will find the flexibility of my lesson plans tailor made for you. Each unit includes a complete calendar plan, lessons for each classroom day for forty-five minutes of instruction each, and even formative and summative assessments to check for learning. Simply use the lessons, scale them as need be, and augment whenever you like.
