The Importance of a Good Chemistry Kit

The Importance of a Good Chemistry KitThe McGrawHill Connect Chemistry Toolkit was originally created for teaching chemistry in middle school science classrooms. As the name implies, it is a kit consisting of a fairly basic chemistry set, an instructional CD, and two reference books. The purpose of this kit is to teach chemistry skills to students while learning to organize, store, and retrieve information about chemistry and the chemistry processes that can occur during a chemical reaction.For the most part, the main parts of the kit are similar to those of other chemistry kits found in the market. Some materials included in the kit are things like a scale, cup, or container to hold liquid sample samples. Some also include a small scale for class experiments. A lab book, test tube guide, basic formula book, and tips for teaching the subject will be also be included in the kit. There are also bonus materials like a teacher's guide for students who want to apply the concepts taught in the instructional CD and a lesson plan with pictures and an easy to follow color coded schematic.The teaching CD can be bought separately if you are a teacher who wants to introduce the subject of chemistry to your students without having to purchase several other materials. This means that your students can just take the CD with them to class and learn on their own. However, if you would like to continue teaching through other materials, you may want to invest in the Teacher's Guide, which includes guides to make elementary-level math concepts clear to your students, a good idea if you are teaching another subject.The guide has an easy to understand clear definition of most of the concepts taught in the CD, and it includes classroom-tested lesson plans and even practice tests that you can use with your students. You will also find that the CD comes with more detailed teaching videos than other chemistry kits. This will enable you to focus on the task at hand, which is still teachi ng the chemistry concepts you have learned in the CD.Tmcgrawhill connect chemistry One of the drawbacks of teaching the chemistry to students is that many do not get the full benefits of learning chemistry. This is because some students have no prior knowledge of the subject and are not able to grasp what the textbook covers. This is why you need to provide the students with a good foundation of information so that they will get the benefit of being exposed to the subject at a later stage in their academic careers. With the McGrawHill Connect Chemistry Toolkit, you will get a good foundation, and as your students build up their chemistry knowledge, you will be able to show them that everything they learned is not so hard to understand.Although the materials included in the kit may not be too expensive, you might want to think about getting the materials to replace what you already have, so that you can get good quality at the same time. If you find that you need to replace the McGr awHill Connect Chemistry Toolkit, then you should consider getting a cheaper substitute. Just make sure that you do not choose a material that can't be applied to your needs. Even if the material is cheaper, it is still important to choose something that can still be used to teach the subject to your students, even if it is cheaper.Kits like the McGrawHill Connect Chemistry Toolkit have been used in different classrooms throughout the country, and they are available at many retailers around the world. They are typically cheap, but do have some features that make them worth purchasing. It is very important to compare all the features before you buy a chemistry kit, so that you get the best one that fits your requirements.

COMMUNITY FEEDBACK REQUESTED BY NCDHHS ADD MATH - Heart Math Tutoring

COMMUNITY FEEDBACK REQUESTED BY NCDHHS â€" ADD MATH - Heart Math Tutoring COMMUNITY FEEDBACK REQUESTED BY NCDHHS â€" ADD MATH COMMUNITY FEEDBACK REQUESTED BY NCDHHS â€" ADD MATH November 19, 2018 The NC Department of Health and Human Services released a draft statewide Early Childhood Action Plan and is asking for community feedback in writing by November 30th. The goal of the plan is to improve early childhood outcomes across NC for children ages 0 â€" 8. Ten high level goals range from improving housing and hunger to health and academics. While it is encouraging to see reading included in the plan, (goal #10 is stated as “Grade Level Reading: Young children across North Carolina will read on grade-level in elementary school.”), it is surprising that math is not currently included as a goal.This document should ideally drive action across the state and so what is included (or excluded) matters. Photo credit:www.cvcsd.stier.org Here are some reasons it is important to include math in efforts to improve early childhood outcomes: School-entry math skills are predictive of later achievement in both math and reading â€" with an even higher correlation than school-entry reading skills. (Greg Duncan, et. Al, 2007) Only 40% of fourth graders in North Carolina are on grade level in math. (2017 NAEP) Math at age 7 impacts socio-economic status at age 42 (Source: Ritchie Bates, Enduring Links From Childhood Mathematics and Reading Achievement to Adult Socioeconomic Status, 2013) The Early Childhood Action Plan can be found here: https://files.nc.gov/ncdhhs/ECAP-Draft-11.01.18.pdf Community members are invited to go on record requesting that math be incorporated as a high-level goal along with reading (“Grade Level Reading AND Math”) by emailingEdnv. EXAMPLE FEEDBACK: Dear NCDHHS â€" I saw a copy of the Early Childhood Action Plan and want to urge you to include math in goal #10 (“Grade level reading and math”). Math is critical to academic confidence, high-school graduation, and post-secondary and employment options, and skills must be developed early. Here are some additional stats: School-entry math skills are predictive of later achievement in both math and reading â€" with an even higher correlation than school-entry reading skills. (Greg Duncan, et. Al, 2007) Only 40% of fourth graders in North Carolina are on grade level in math. (2017 NAEP) Math at age 7 impacts socio-economic status at age 42 (Source: Ritchie Bates, Enduring Links From Childhood Mathematics and Reading Achievement to Adult Socioeconomic Status, 2013) In early years, math and literacy skills are closely tied (executive function skills, language that organizes/categorizes/describes, ordering and quantities). Please make sure families, educators, and community leaders know how important both subjects are to success and that neither subject is left behind at children’s detriment. Thank you.

2018 Official Guide to the GMAT Review Series Problem #167 (Back solving Variable in Choices)

2018 Official Guide to the GMAT Review Series Problem #167 (Back solving Variable in Choices) GMAT MBA Admissions Blog in this series, one of our most experienced GMAT tutors, John Easter, applies useful strategies to answer questions from the 2018 Official Guide. Problem #167 of the 2018 Official Guide to the GMAT states that four extra-large sandwiches of exactly the same size were ordered for m students where m4. Three of the sandwiches were evenly divided among the students. Since 4 students did not want any of the fourth sandwich, it was evenly divided among the remaining students. If Carol ate one piece from each of the four sandwiches, the amount of sandwich that she ate would be what fraction of a whole extra-large sandwich? (A) (m+4)/(m(m-4) (B) (2m-4)/(m(m-4)) (C) (4m-4)/(m(m-4)) (D) (4m-8)/(m(m-4)) (E) (4m-12)/(m(m-4)) It's a VIC (variables in choices), and there is only one variable, so, obviously, it's time to back-solve! STEP 1: Pick a nice value for m that is greater than 4. This is our pick. Anything should work, so let's say m = 6. STEP 2: Solve the problem when m = 6. The result is our target number. So, six students divided three sandwiches equally. That means each of these students got1/6 of each of three sandwiches. Now, because 4 students didn't want any of the last sandwich is was divided equally between the other 2 students, one of whom was Carol. So, Carol ate 1/6 of each of the three sandwiches that everyone shared and1/2 of the forth sandwich. Carol ate 1/6 + 1/6 + 1/6 + 1/2 sandwiches. That's 1 sandwich. So, our target number is 1. STEP 3: Plug our pick into the answer choices until we find our target number. A nice thing to notice is that all of our answers have the same denominator: m(m-4). If we plug 6 into that denominator we get 12. Since our target number is 1, we only need to find an answer with a numerator equal to 12. (A) 6 + 4 = 10. Nope (B) 2(6) - 4 = 8. Nope (C) 4(6) - 4 = 20. Nope (D) 4(6) - 8 = 16. Nope (E) 4(6) - 12 = 12. Yep The correct answer is E. An important caveat - this pick worked really well, but it's always possible that more than one answer will turn your pick into your target number. It's rare, but it can happen. If it does happen, don't panic. Pick a new number and try it on the answers that produced your target number. One of them will work and the others probably won't. If, by some chance, more than one answer still produces your target number, rinse and repeat. Now you try this problem with your own pick.

Making Money by Tutoring Kids in the Classroom

Making Money by Tutoring Kids in the ClassroomTutoring kids is an extremely effective way to make money by tutoring them in the classroom. Many people have tried this at home, but it is still very much a new field. The problem is that most people are not familiar with how to make this business profitable.Yes, you can tutor people online, and yes, you can make a great deal of money. The issue is that a lot of it depends on how easy the simple stuff is to do. It is certainly easy enough to tutor the little ones in the elementary school level, but they have very different learning styles than the elementary students. Most of these elementary students have really big books and need lots of reading time.You will have no luck tutoring elementary schools at all, because they will be constantly breaking up the work and turning it into small pieces to take care of. Once they have the first-grade work done, they will expect the students to come in and tutor them. The real focus in this part of the teaching profession is teaching the big books.People who have made a good living tutoring adults at elementary school levels will tell you that there is no real reason to tutor little children at this level of education. They will not take the time to learn anything new, and there is no real point in trying to teach them how to read. Even if you have great English speaking skills, as most people who do this have, this is still a language that needs to be learned at a very young age.The second-grade level is where most people's tutor, because their students have never heard anything about how to read and write, and will be learning this stuff at a very early age. This is the stage when the child's vocabulary and composition skills are being developed. The second-grade students will most likely never go beyond this level of education. Most of their basic reading and writing skills will be at the end of the first year of school.Once your students graduate from this level, it will be very difficult for you to make money tutoring them. Remember, most of the people who tutor children at this level are being paid by private schools to do so. At this point, it is much harder to find a school willing to pay more than the federal minimum wage for a full time salary teacher. This is why the best thing you can do is find a good state school, and begin tutoring your children early.As the children start out in the educational level, they will have the most time to develop reading and writing skills. So you will find that your tutoring income increases as you teach the younger children, and the older ones also pick up the language. At this point, if you are looking for a way to make money by tutoring, start tutoring at the right level, and you will be in good shape.
