Quizlet

I really like a good quiz. It's a great opportunity to mix learning and fun. One of the apps I enjoy using is Quizlet. It has an extensive database of study sets created by other uses but it also allows you to create your own sets.


 Below are some of the ways I use Quizlet.

1) Test key vocabulary
Use Quizlet Live to check the understanding of key terminology. Your students will work in groups and match key words with their definitions.

2) Use TEST option
Once you are done creating your study set, the test option will create a multiple choice test for your students to try.

3) Flashcards
This is a great revision tool. Ask your students to create their own revision cards as a part of end of unit test preparation.

There are many other options on Quizlet for you to choose from. The above work best for me at the moment.

Have a go with your students:

Chapter 8 Acids and Bases (IB Chemistry) - click here

Cells (MYP Science) - Click here

I wish you great lessons!

Let YouTube help you teach Science #15


You will cover VSEPR with your IB students in chapter 4. This video will help them visualise the geometry of different molecules. It's good to pair up watching the video with showing models of the molecules. This will help those students, who might struggle with 3D animations and are more kinesthetic learners.

I wish you great lessons!
