Wizardry Learning

The Ultimate Class Starter is here. 300 slides with an interesting and thought provoking fact as well as an interesting image to spark student minds the second they walk into the room.

Not all skeletons are easily identified. Have students look at the skeletons of animals and guess which animals they are. Some are easy, some are impossible. It is really interesting where students assess features of a skeleton to give clues for what animal it is.

This will be one of your favorite handouts ever for high school chemistry classes. There are 20 combustion reactions where students need to balance them. They progress from the easier molecules of methane and ethane to really interesting ones like large wax molecules and ketones. It doesn't matter if your class knows how to name the molecules, it is the practice with balancing that is the purpose of this document. Enjoy. (All problems are C/H/O combustions)
