Ten teachers gathered to share ideas on what to do at the end of the year, when both focus and attendance can be low. 

Various "snow labs" started the discussion, and we all agreed it was important to avoid Christmas references in most schools in order to be inclusive.

The discussion then ranged into lots of different content areas, from playing with ice to absorbant polymers and saturated solutions to the distillation of wood. Multiple files can be found on this google.drive folder.

The Zoom recording can be found here.

The next ChemChat will be held on Thursday, January 8th from 4-5 pm. The topic is "favorite demonstrations". Registrations are open: see "Events".

At this point I am soliciting topics for February through June. You can send them to me at sklemmer@mac.com
