Looking for a comprehensive plan for teaching acid-base chemistry? Science scholars discover acid-base interactions through a thoughtfully written unit. The resource is divided into paced activities and individual work designed to promote a deep understanding of strong and weak acids and bases, titration, dissociation constants, and pH.

Instructional Ideas

• Use the student-centered questions as a class discussion to check for understanding
• Create stations for the activities and have partners work through the stations throughout the week

Classroom Considerations

• Group pupils for titration and the more difficult calculations at the middle school level
• Learners should have an understanding of logarithms before determining pH values for solutions

Pros

• Includes all printable materials in the teacher's guide
• Each activity is designed for a specific objective and fits into a structured learning progression
• You can modify the unit to accommodate learners at any level

Cons

• None
