Take your beginning chemistry students farther than you ever imagined The Intuitive Chemistry books start with the traditional chemistry curriculum, and modify it in three unique ways.Uses the Ross model of the atom, a simplified version of the atom that "works" the way that young people think. Students can use the Ross model to make insightful explanations and accurate predictions of chemical behaviour.Rearranges the traditional curriculum to avoid confusion and build student competency. Competent students are confident students Provides a model of science that directs the student's attention to the student's own understanding. Each experiment tests the validity of the student's own thinking.As in all of the IntuitivScience series, diagrams are an important mode of expression. Parents and teachers, you get one half of the book We provide solid pedagogical supports, recipes, and methods of presentation.Informed by over thirty years of international research into how students learn science, the IntuitivChemistry series directly challenges the everyday misconceptions that students bring to your classroom. For each Student Exercise in this book there is a Parent-Teacher Guide, to help you teach your child about the periodic table.Your student will review the composition of matter, from sub-atomic particles to solutions and mixtures.Next, you will explore the relationship between atomic structure, chemical behaviour, and organization of the periodic table.Finally, a brief survey of the chemical behavior of the s-block and p-block elements follows.At the end of each section is a thorough quiz

Take your beginning chemistry students farther than you ever imagined The IntuitivChemistry books will guide your student through the traditional chemistry curriculum - and make it intuitive in three unique ways.We are all visual learners. Every student exercise uses simple diagrams that are easy to learn, diagrams designed to have extraordinary power and depth. The diagrams are based upon the mental models that all of us use to make sense of the world, so they feel "intuitive." And they are tested carefully against demands of good scientific theory. You will use the Ross model of the atom, a simplified version of the atom that "works" the way that young people think. Students can use the Ross model to make insightful explanations and accurate predictions of chemical behaviour.You will follow the traditional curriculum in a slightly re-arranged order, to avoid confusion and build student competency. Competent students are confident students We will provide you with a model of science that directs the student's attention to the student's own understanding. Each experiment tests the validity of the student's own thinking.Each two-page student activity requires students to represent chemical processes four different ways: Balanced chemical equation, word equation, Dalton diagram equation and mass equation. These four representations reinforce student understanding of chemical change. In addition, each activity requires students to use complete sentences and paragraphs to express their own thinking.The relationship between atomic structure, chemical behavior, and organization of the periodic table is extended from the Grade Nine Chemistry unit. We clearly intend this unit to anticipate and support the introduction of the mole concept in Grade 11.The unit is composed of three major sections.Decomposition and synthesis reactions, with their one-to-many and many-to-one structure, are the easiest to work with. Metals, non-metals and pH. The origins of acid and base behavior are probed here, bringing the student to single displacement and double displacement reactions.Reactions of Acids and Bases. In both metal / acid reactions and acid / base reactions, we continue to use the four representations. Emphasis is placed on naming the chemicals involved.Each two-page student exercise is linked to a two-page parent / teacher guide.At the end of each section is a thorough quiz.

Understanding motion is difficult... no longer Perhaps you remember the approach you experienced in high school. It started with time, distance and mass, three concepts that took thousands of years for the best minds in humanity to finally sort out. IntuitivPhysics re-presents this traditionally difficult material using three simple diagrams that work with, not against, students' experience of motion.For example, your child sees a soccer ball lying motionless, and gives the ball a kick toward a friend. The ball moves smoothly toward the friend, who stops the ball with another nudge, leaving the ball motionless once again. We will study four aspects of that motion over four weeks.Students will learn to draw velocity: time graphs, an idea that teenagers find easy to understand. Then we learn to analyze that graph for displacement and acceleration. Students will calculate distance (displacement) as the area under a v: t graph. And of course acceleration is the slope of the v: t graph.In their muscles, bones, tendons and nerves, children have a natural intuitive understanding of impulse, the ooomph that gets a ball moving or stopping. We will make the most of their intuitive understanding: this Ooomph is known to physicists as Δp, (change in momentum). Forces are present whenever momentum is exchanged. We will make use of the v: t graph and the concept of impulse to develop a simple model of force. This brief treatment of force is only enough to explain the events that the students are studying.Motion in 2 dimensions brings the student to a more realistic portrayal of moving objects in sports. Momentum offers the most effective subject for beginners to learn about vectors.Every two-page pencil-and-paper student exercise has its own two-page parent / teacher guide, to help you teach your child. Your student will investigate the motions of bicycles, soccer balls, and their own bodies in everyday play, using diagrams. All your child needs is a pencil, some paper, and basic addition, subtraction multiplication and division. No algebra

Let's do more than just memorize stuff Once again, IntuitivScience represents introductory cell biology in a highly pictorial manner. Using very simple, easy-to-reproduce diagrams, students can quickly accomplish a solid understanding of the "how-and-why" of cellular reproduction. In this book, we explore how multicellular organisms grow, repair tissue, and pass on hereditary material. The emphasis is on the genetic information and its faithful and complete transmission between generations. We construct a simple model of the structure and role of DNA, how it is translated into protein, and how it is combined in sexual reproduction.Parents and teachers, you get one half of the book We provide solid pedagogical supports, recipes, and methods of presentation. Every two-page Student Exercise in this book is supported by a two-page Parent-Teacher Guide, to help you teach your child about cellular reproduction. The unit itself is subdivided into four major sections. Each section will take a little more than one week to complete.Structure and function of the plant and animal cell. Basic use of the microscope to observe the plant and animal cells. This might be review for many students.The observable features of cellular reproduction, which are divided into two distinct phases. The first phase is cell reproduction, which involves the whole life cycle of one cell. The second observable phase is nuclear reproduction, which is widely known as mitosis.Reproduction at the molecular level. What's going on down there during mitosis and meiosis? What can go wrong?Laboratory activities in which students examine some forms of reproduction.At the end of each section is a thorough quiz. Your student will learn how multi-cellular organisms grow, repair tissue, and pass on hereditary material by forms of cell division and differentiation, with an emphasis on the genetic information and its faithful and complete transmission between generations. We explore the structure and role of DNA, how the cell "reads" DNA to make proteins, and how DNA damage can result in errors in those proteins. You may also investigate how people can manipulate DNA, and the societal effects of this technology.

An investigation into environmental sustainability, this unit emphasizes the structures of ecosystems, the cycling of matter and energy within ecosystems, and the ways in which humans affect sustainability of ecosystems. Because this unit involves some outdoor investigations, it should be placed first if taught in the autumn semester, or last, if taught in the winter semester. The unit itself is divided into four sections.1.The unit begins with a brief consideration of energy and thermodynamics and the limits placed on ecosystems by the first two laws.2.Recycling matter is the focus of the second part of the unit. Students investigate the water cycle, food webs and other biotic components of ecosystems.3.Next, students are given the opportunity to investigate abiotic and biotic parameters in a local aquatic ecosystem.4.The unit concludes with a five-day performance task that will enable students to examine human affects on the sustainability of ecosystems.

From legendary wrestling announcer Jim Ross, this candid, colorful memoir about the inner workings of the WWE and the personal crises he weathered at the height of his career is “a must-read for wrestling fans” (Charleston Post Courier).If you’ve caught a televised wrestling match anytime in the past thirty years, you’ve probably heard Jim Ross’s throaty Oklahoma twang. The beloved longtime announcer of the WWE “has been a driving force behind a generation of wrestling fans” (Mark Cuban), and he’s not slowing down, having signed on as the announcer of the starry new wrestling venture All Elite Wrestling. In this follow-up to his bestselling memoir Slobberknocker, he dishes out about not only his long career, which includes nurturing global stars like Stone Cold Steve Austin, The Rock, and John Cena, but also about his challenges of aging and disability, his split from collaborator Vince McMahon, and the sudden death of his beloved wife, Jan. The result is a gruff, endearing, and remarkably human-scale portrait, set against the larger than life backdrop of professional wrestling. Ross’s ascent in WWE mirrors the rise of professional wrestling itself from a DIY sideshow to a billion-dollar business. Under the Black Hat traces all the highs and lows of that wild ride, in which Jim served not only as on-air commentator, but talent manager, payroll master, and even occasional in-ring foil to threats like Paul “Triple H” Levesque and Undertaker. While his role brought him riches and exposure he had never dreamed of, he chafed against the strictures of a fickle corporate culture and what he saw as a narrow vision of what makes great wrestlers—and great story lines. When suddenly stricken with Bell’s palsy, a form of facial paralysis that makes it impossible to smile, he started down his greatest fear—being cast out of the announcing booth for good. Picking up where Slobberknocker left off and ending on the cusp of a new career in a reimagined industry, Under the Black Hat is the triumphant tale of a country boy who made it to the top, took a few knocks, and stuck around—just where his fans like him. Not only being one of the greatest wrestlers of the WWE, Ross is also “a master storyteller, and this book is the perfect forum for his forty years’ worth of tales” (Chris Jericho, former WWE champion).

Oklahoma is where East and West collide on Route 66, where the rolling hills that reach across its borders from Missouri and Arkansas give way to red earth and Big Sky Country. It is a land of agriculture, oil, and Native America. Route 66 stamped itself into the landscape here in 1926, extending from the state's northeast corner through Tulsa and Oklahoma City to the Texas Panhandle in the west. It was Oklahoma Highway commissioner Cyrus Avery, now known as the "Father of Route 66," who originally championed a major route stretching from Chicago to Los Angeles. Today, its pathway in Oklahoma is rich with small-town ambiance and landmarks, including many of the route's most popular attractions. From the magnificent Coleman Theatre in Miami to the Oklahoma Route 66 Museum in Clinton, the Mother Road across the Sooner State is an explorer's feast.

Electricity can be easy to understand - if you choose the right starting point To make the science of electricity intuitive, you will begin with energy. From here, you can learn a fruitful model of simple electric circuits, developed from ground up. This approach is highly pictorial: you will represent electric potential (Volts) and electric current (Amps) with simple diagrams. Then you can use these diagrams to analyze electric circuits. When the time comes to introduce algebra and equations, you will already have know something about V, I, R and P from your diagrams. Parents and teachers, you get one half of the book We provide solid pedagogical supports, recipes, and methods of presentation.Every Student Exercise has a corresponding Parent-Teacher Guide - to help you teach your own child about electricity. Using pencil-and-paper exercises, your student will develop a fruitful model of simple electric circuits. Every exercise uses meaningful and powerful diagrams that work the way that kids actually think. Because this unit involves fundamental forces and concepts, it is placed first in the series of four strands. It should be taught before chemistry.The Electricity unit is subdivided into four sections, approximately one week each.Static electricity and the electrical structure of matterCharacteristics of electric current, and development of a model of current, potential, resistance and powerMathematical treatment of series and parallel circuitsProjects that are either an application of the model or an extensions of the model.At the end of sections 1 - 3 is a thorough quiz
