Instructional Ideas

• Print out a sheet with the reactivity series on it for pupils to add to their science journals
• Create additional practice problems for scholars to solve

Classroom Considerations

• Relies on prior knowledge of metals and chemical equations

Pros

• Includes instructions to pause the video and solve single displacement reactions before learning the correct answer
• Works well in a traditional or a flipped class

Cons

• None
