Instructional Ideas
  • Review all safety practices at the beginning of the unit and review again before each experiment
Classroom Considerations
  • Station two during the explore phase of the unit must have an adult working with the flames for safety
  • Requires four stations set up for small groups to work in over the course of two days; if you have more than 16 students, you will need to set up duplicate stations so everyone has time and access
Pros
  • Includes three intervention and three extension ideas
  • Offers common misconceptions and strategies to address them
Cons
  • None
