Book Reviews of Hiroshima
Book Review: Chemistry Teacher
Summary: 5 Stars
I used this very simple book to inject a little burst of "something" different into my Chemistry class. I use it when I cover Nuclear Chemistry. It describes very simply the vocabulary words for an atomic bomb and the plus is that the students get to learn about the point of view of a young girl.
It's a great help in the course: they have to read! The students get to see a different point of view of what would have been just another topic in a not so fun class (That is, -for some.) I like to have a little bit for everybody in my classes, this book allows for a breath of fresh air for those who are suffocating with the chemistry compounds... They see "People things: feelings" in the class of Chemistry! Wow, that doesn't happen too often!
