Apologia Chemistry: Review

One suggestion I have for you is to do constant review.   For example, give the kids two reactants and ask them to predict the products, write the formulas, and balance the equation.  This reviews nomenclature and balancing equations.  Then ask them to determine the number of grams of each reactant needed to form five grams of one or both of the products.  As often as possible, write compounds and molecules in words and have the kids write the correct formula.  It's the only way to keep these skills fresh.
