Product Summary
The Essential Chemistry Laboratory Investigations Teacher Resources include all of the teacher resources for the 73 lab activities found in the printed Essential Chemistry Laboratory Investigations Student Manual (the printed student lab manual is sold separately). These teacher resources are only available electronically and include the following:
- Editable Word and printable PDF version of each student lab
- Presentations of each lab in PPTX and PDF format for displaying during the lab
- Teacher Answer Keys in editable Word and printable PDF formats
- Links to videos that help guide you through the activities
- Sample data in SPARKlab format
- Lab preparation directions and tips
∗ Additional Chemical Equation Builder and Molecule Simulations available with full curriculum purchase.
Video Support
How-to videos for lab activities are included with the teacher resources. These videos focus on setting up the labs and getting the most from your PASCO sensors and equipment.
This manual was designed to be used either in conjunction with the Essential Chemistry curriculum or as a supplemental lab manual. Teacher Resources must be purchased separately when using the lab manual without the Essential Chemistry textbook.
Experiments
There are 73 labs and activities covering a full year of chemistry topics. 47 of the labs use the sensors and/or equipment from the Essential Chemistry Standard Equipment Kit. The remaining labs can be performed using typical equipment found in your chemistry lab.
