Description
Attached you will find a tried and true method to teach balancing chemical equations to learners of all abilities. Balancing chemical equations is a skill that can be challenging for many students. Because it is often presented in class as easy, the struggling learners will often not speak up. This method presents a concrete connection between increasing the number of compounds, changing the overall number of atoms, and adjusting the coefficients. Attached you will also find 8 practice problems and an answer key. I have successfully used this methodology with students as young as seventh grade and observed class mastery of this concept over multiple years.
