This workbook is designed to give students an understanding of Acids and Bases and will lead students into Level 1 NCEA. It also includes material on writing equations and formulae.
It focuses on aspects of Levels 3, 4 and 5 of the New Zealand Science Curriculum.
It gives students a base to build onto with reference to the properties of acids and bases, the pH scale, indicators, word and basic symbol equations, neutralisation and how humans use acids and bases.
The literacy tasks in this workbook encourage the students to read for meaning, scan material, select appropriate information and understand keywords. The inclusion of mini-research projects prepares students for what is required in the Senior Sciences.
The numeracy tasks involve number skills, rounding, using basic formulae, graphing data and reading tables accurately. These are all vital skills in the Sciences and beyond.
