This senior chemistry lesson package starts with an overview of the five main types of reactions: synthesis, decomposition, combustion, single displacement, and double displacement reactions. It then goes into detail about synthesis and decomposition reactions including what they are, the differences between them, as well as plenty of examples. The lesson concludes by checking for student understanding. It is geared towards students who are taking senior high school chemistry.

In order, the lesson covers:

• Steps to Writing Reactions
• Synthesis Reactions
• Decomposition Reaction
• Combustion Reactions
• Check Your Understanding for each type of reaction

This chemistry lesson package includes the lesson (student and teacher versions of the presentation), an auto-graded Exit Ticket, two embedded videos, and a student lesson handout as a document. The presentation is fun and applicable with many opportunities for inquiry-based learning and discussion.

This lesson is geared towards grade 11 and 12 students. If you're looking for something for grade 9 or 10s, please choose from below.

• Chemical Reactions
• Balancing Chemical Reactions
• Types of Chemical Reactions

Google and Distance Learning Ready

• This lesson includes both Office and Google formats for ALL resources. The presentation is in PowerPoint and Google Slides while all documents contain Word and Google Doc versions.
• Your resource is perfect for distance learning and integrates seamlessly with Google Classroom as I've included a link that will automatically create a copy of the resources and put them directly into your Google Drive with one click.
• Purchase --> Open --> Click --> Assign to your students

Having both options allows you to use either without worrying about formatting issues as all the work has already been done for you. It safeguards you in case your department or school decides to go Google 100% and allows you as well as your students to access everything no matter where you are or what kind of equipment is being used.

Included in the lesson package is:

• Google and Office versions of each resource
• The teacher version of the presentation
• The student version of the presentation
• TWO embedded videos
• Auto-graded Exit Ticket
• Student lesson handout

The student version of the presentation contains multiple blanks that need to be filled in throughout the lesson. These blanks are conveniently underlined and bolded on the teacher copy. I have found this to be the most effective means of keeping my students engaged and active without having them write everything out. This also leaves more time for discussion and activities.

Within my Chemical Reactions Unit you can find the following lessons:

• Lesson 1 - Chemical Reactions and Balancing
• Lesson 2 - Synthesis, Decomposition, and Combustion
• Lesson 3 - Single and Double Displacement Reactions
