Notes from a workshop held at the Dutch Neck School, West Windsor, NJ, May 18, 1998, by Steve Hoagland, Chemist at the American Cyanamid Company. This Web version was assembled and edited, with some additional material, by David Reibstein, PMI Outreach Director and scientist mentor of the Chemical Tests Team.
| CONTENTS | |

| Time Management Tips | |
| Vocabulary | |
| Comments on the Lessons | Ideas that occurred to me, answers to questions that I had about the material, and points I wanted to clarify as I read through the unit. |
| Chemical Identities and Names of the Unknowns | |

| Supplementary Extensions | Activities related to the extensions listed at the end of each lesson and simple additions that can be incorporated into the main lesson. Also, ideas for experiments that illustrate subjects mentioned in the background sections; these are adapted from other sources. I did not try the experiments outlined in the supplementary extensions. If you wish to use these activities with your class, please try them out by yourself first. We will be happy to help you develop any of them for use in your class. |
| Tested Experiments | These experiments have been tested and they should work as described. |

Please call, fax, or email Steve Hoagland or David Reibstein, PMI Outreach Director, if you have questions or comments about this material or the science content of the unit or if you need more information about a certain topic. We will be pleased to help develop ideas you have for extensions or modifications to the lessons. We may also be able to obtain some materials for some of the extension activities.
