The book Chemistry on a Budget contains inexpensive chemistry labs that are useful with easy to obtain materials.
 
There are two versions of each lab, one with a ten-question conclusion and one with directions for a full lab report.  This way the teacher has the option!  Each lab is two pages to allow for one two-sided handout. 
 
A 5-Star Customer Review of Chemistry on a Budget at amazon.com states:
“[S]traight forward, to the point, using household chemicals…this is the lab book for you. 
I teach high school chemistry and this is exactly what i was looking for. Labs included simple household chemicals that could be easily found. Nice format, easy to follow along procedures, and touches on every topic of our chemistry curriculum.”
 
You can buy this lab book for $23 at amazon.com or lulu.com. It will take 1-2 weeks to get to you -- Order Now.  It’s a great resource!

Congratulations on getting to Thanksgiving 2017!  It has been a very busy time in your classroom.  Pat yourself on the back for a job well done!
 
After this long weekend, including travel for many of you, there are only 4 weeks before the Holiday Break!  Think about what you want to accomplish. 
 
Just a reminder, some students leave a little early for that vacation, so it’s up to you if you want to schedule a test, quiz, or lab in that last week – you  might end up with extra work completing all of those makeups!
 
Some blog posts that may be useful include:
