Simple refraction in a glass

 Watch an arrow bend in a glass with and without water! It's amazing to see the look of disbelief when students realize it's not magic, just refraction. Optics can be both fun and fascinating!

Teaching Maths online

 Maths teaching is a breeze online, unlike Science. Using Zoom we can handle large numbers of students and explain how to solve Mathematical problems, creating a Plan for solving each problem faced.

Chemistry Experiment Practice

In many schools, students only have a limited opportunity to conduct experiments with chemicals and acquire skills for conducting chemistry practicals. This lack of exposure leaves them unsure about experiment procedures and design.

Chemistry practical work is essential for several reasons:

1. Reinforcement of theoretical concepts: Practical work provides students with a hands-on experience that reinforces theoretical concepts taught in the classroom. It helps students to visualize and understand complex chemical phenomena that they might not fully grasp through theoretical explanations alone.

2. Development of laboratory skills: Practical work enables students to develop essential laboratory skills, such as accurate measurement, observation, recording of data, and analysis. These skills are transferable to other scientific disciplines and are highly valued in the workplace.

3. Safety awareness: Chemistry practical work emphasizes the importance of safety protocols and encourages safe working practices, which are crucial in preventing accidents in the laboratory.

4. Preparation for future studies and careers: Chemistry practical work prepares students for higher education and careers in the sciences, as it allows them to experience scientific research and experimentation first-hand.

5. Assessment of student learning: Practical work is an essential component of chemistry assessments, as it allows students to demonstrate their understanding and application of theoretical concepts in a practical setting. This assessment form also provides teachers with a valuable tool for evaluating students' laboratory skills and ability to work independently.

 

Demonstrating Longitudinal and Transverse waves on a slinky

 Capturing images or video of a slinky on a phone camera while demonstrating longitudinal and transverse waves provides a great opportunity to see the physical phenomena in action. #LongitudinalWaves #TransverseWaves #SlinkyExperiment #ScienceEducation #VisualLearning

Magnetic Stirrer

 According to the students, the magnetic stirrer is considered the most effective piece of chemistry equipment.

Normal Distributions

 

Normal distributions and inverse normal distributions can be tricky concepts for students. Knowing when to use each one and determining which one the question is referencing can be challenging. Using the Casio CG-50 with distribution helps. We're working hard to master it in class! #Maths #NormalDistribution #Education
