Guided worksheet that reviews determining percent composition of a compound, finding hydrate formulas based on mass from a dehydration reaction, using percent composition to determine empirical formulas, and using empirical formulas to determine molecular formulas based on experimental molar masses. Guided format with notes and examples built in for use in teaching the concept with a practice problem for each section. Great for introducing or reviewing concepts. 2 pages plus full answer key included.

Students are asked to draw Lewis dot structures of molecules and then assign their geometries. Links to the PhET activities in which these molecules are modeled are provided so that students may visualize the molecules in 3D and check their assigned geometries. 1 page worksheet and full answer key included.

Worksheet that utilizes the imaginary purple people eater monsters to give students practice transcribing and translating to identify amino acids that code for specific traits. For added fun, students are asked to draw the monsters coded for by the DNA. The worksheet is 12 pages so that each student may have a unique monster! There is a full answer key included for ease of checking student work. Additionally, I have included an excel sheet of the DNA, mRNA, and Amino Acid codes for each trait for ease of making additional monster combinations.

Class activity where students perform the roles of RNA polymerase to transcribe DNA into mRNA. Then the mRNA travels to the cytoplasm, where a ribosome and some tRNA await to translate it into Amino Acids. Provides great review of the processes as well as emphasizing the roles of the 3 types of RNA. Also great for launching discussions about mutations and other important topics. Activity requires some prep work the first time. I recommend in the activity directions that the pieces be laminated for ease of reusing and the pieces be printed on colored paper, but this is not required. Students, other teachers, and administrators love this activity and the finished product is a great display item.

Stoichiometry practice worksheet with a holiday theme! Spell "Happy Turkey Day" by solving chemistry problems! Not teaching Stoichiometry till later in the year? Then try the Easter version! PDF and word versions and Full answer key included!

Notes on Percent yield and mass to mass stoichiometry with examples and practice problems for use in chemistry. Worksheet is one page front and back, full answer key included.

Worksheet that guides students through how to use percent composition to determine empirical formulas with examples and practice problems. 2 sided.

Worksheet designed to help teach/reinforce the concept of determining percent composition of molecules from their molecular formulas in a stepwise fashion. It starts with identifying molar mass from the periodic table and works up to percent composition breaking it down into steps and giving examples for each step along the way. Includes a full answer key!!!

Vocabulary sheets for viruses and cells with word, definition, and how I can remember. Includes a student template and teacher answer key. I like to cut these out and use them as a trifold in the student notebooks for review (glue the how I remember box down and fold so you can only see the vocab words.) Word Document for easy editing (Also includes extra boxes for more words to fit individual needs).
