Student Edition: Synergized Middle School Chemistry


Book Description

" ... contains all of the student lessons found in both volumes of Synergized middle school chemistry (vol. 1: Matter's phases and properties and v. 2: Elements and interactions), with the exception of the student post-assessments ... The six sequential lesson sets ... form a cohesive, instructional sequence designed to develop basic chemistry concepts developmentally appropriate for middle school students."--Page iii.




Synergized Middle School Chemistry


Book Description

" ... offers an exciting approach for teaching middle school chemistry. SMSC "synergizes" or "puts together" inquiry-based labs, literacy connections, and embedded assessments."--Page 4 of cover.




Synergized Middle School Chemistry


Book Description

Synergized Middle School Chemistry (SMSC) offers a unique approach for teaching middle school science. This book synergizes or puts together lesson sequences using the best practices of science instruction: inquiry-based learning, literacy integration (nonfiction reading and writing, using science notebooks, science mathematics connections) and embedded assessments (effective design, real world applications). SMSC students are active participants in the learning process. Lessons are engaging hands-on and relevant. Students read, write, calculate, and communicate in the context of science. Student assessment is continuous and ongoing. SMSC includes practical advice for teachers from background information to material preparation to literacy and assessment strategies. To help save time and money SMSC investigations use safe and economical supplies found in supermarkets and discount stores.
