Types of Chemical Reactions and Balancing Device-Based Scavenger Hunt Activity

Types of Chemical Reactions and Balancing Device-Based Scavenger Hunt Activity This engaging scavenger hunt activity teaches students about different types of chemical reactions and how to balance equations. Students work in small groups, moving from station to station around the classroom and utilizing devices to complete unique tasks at each location. Tasks involve videos, simulations, quizzes, calculations, readings, and more to reinforce concepts like synthesis reactions, decomposition reactions, single and double displacement reactions, combustion, and incomplete combustion. The self-paced, game-like format promotes engaged learning, allows the teacher to assess student progress in real-time, and works well for whole class, small group, or independent practice. This versatile resource saves paper, comes in Word and PDF formats, and combines learning with fun.
