Conquer Chemistry Woes Using NSTA's More Chemistry Basics: Finally Understanding Science So You Can Teach It
ARLINGTON, Va., May 10 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Teachers, parents, and home-school providers looking to brush up on chemistry concepts will love the ninth book in the popular Stop Faking It! series. Bestselling and award-winning author Bill Robertson uses easy-to-follow activities, humor, and his usual direct approach to take the anxiety out of chemistry and maximize content knowledge.
Robertson begins with a review of fundamental topics such as the periodic table, atomic theory, and chemical reactions. Later chapters introduce new chemistry concepts, such as special reactions, and expand on previously discussed ideas, such as electron energy levels. These pages comprise key definitions, activities designed to aid in the comprehension of central concepts, suggestions for applying the concepts, and a complete glossary available for reference. Brian Diskin's amusing illustrations, featured throughout, are an added bonus.
More Chemistry Basics is an invaluable resource that provides teachers, as well as homework-helping parents and home-school providers, with renewed confidence in their understanding of chemistry content.
