Chemistry is a branch of physical science that studies the composition, structure, properties and change of matter.
This is just a collection of resources that I've collected to help teach chemistry at home. I add to it as the need arises, in shaa Allah.
Period Tables
So of course you can google images for Periodic tables and find many to choose from to print out or hang up in your homeschool study space. These are just a few that I particularly liked:
- I absolutely love this one from Science Geek, illustrated - has illustrations of an item made from/with that element
- Periodic Tables from Science Notes - different ones: black and white, pastel colors, bright colors....
- Periodic Table of Elements from LiveScience
- Nice selection of printable Periodic Tables from ScienceGeek
Videos that teach/introduce the Periodic table
Enter an element name to find out facts about it!
Experiments
Books/Workbooks
- cK 12 online chemistry textbook, videos
- Glencoe Chemistry Study Guide
- Glencoe Chemistry Laboratory Manual - I am not sure if this is the whole manual or not, it's 208 pages and even if you don't use Glencoe it could be helpful or give you ideas for your homeschool laboratory work.
