Instructional Ideas
  • Perform some neutralization reactions in the lab or as a demonstration, then back them up with the activity
  • Ask students to write and balance equations for the salts they form in the interactive
Classroom Considerations
  • Show the class how to manipulate the puzzles if it is their first time using this type of interactive
  • Pupils should have a strong foundation in writing double displacement reactions and acid-base interactions to attempt the puzzles
Pros
  • Resource materials are available in print form in the teacher's section of the website
  • The puzzles are timed, which challenges users to stay focused on solving them
Cons
  • None
