Real Science 4 Kids: Chemistry Level II; Chapter 2

This week I struggled teaching this lesson.  The information in Part 2 is pretty intense and if you check out the recommend appendixes, it's even more so.   It is definitely workable and  ideas always come to mind to reorganize the information.  After figuring it out, I called a friend from my homeschool group that has a chemistry background to verify that what I thought I understood was correct.   After talking with him I realized that I needed to share the ideas of three types of covalent bonds so the kids understood that they existed and how they are formed.  From there we'll move onto Chapter 3 learning to write equations.  An advanced chemistry student may want more, if that's the case definitely check out the appendixes however you may need some additional texts to get the full picture.
