Teacher’s Guide Summary

This Guide is published by the Federal Democratic Republic of Ethiopia, Ministry of Education in 2002 E.C., this Chemistry Teacher’s Guide is tailored for Grade 10 and follows the old national curriculum. The guide contains four comprehensive units, spans 238 pages, and has a file size of 1.4 MB. This guide provides pedagogical direction, lab activities, and problem-solving approaches essential for a well-rounded chemistry teachers.

The guide was authored and reviewed by Dr. J.L. Sharma, Nell Angelo (M.A.), Stella Johnson, Amare Legesse, Dawit Tafesse, and Dr. Shimeles Admase.

The Ethiopian Old Curriculum Grade 10 Chemistry Teacher’s Guide is divided into four units. Each unit helps teachers structure content delivery, connect theory to practice, and engage students through inquiry-based learning and local context examples.

Unit 1: Introduction to Organic Chemistry

This unit introduces students to the fundamentals of organic chemistry, beginning with the structure of hydrocarbons. Teachers guide students through saturated, unsaturated, and aromatic hydrocarbons, followed by lessons on alcohols and their natural sources. The unit concludes with industrial and agricultural applications of organic compounds, reinforcing relevance to real-life Ethiopian contexts.

Unit 2: Important Inorganic Compounds

Educators present core topics such as oxides, acids, bases, and salts. Through classroom demonstrations and experiments, students explore the characteristics and reactions of these compounds and understand their significance in daily life and industry.

Unit 3: Electrochemistry

In this unit, teachers help students explore the principles of electrochemistry, including electrical conductivity, electrolysis, and galvanic cells. Real-world applications like industrial electrolysis are also included, helping students connect scientific principles to Ethiopian industries and global technologies.

Unit 4: Chemistry in Industry and Environmental Pollution

This unit covers the role of chemistry in natural resource use, industrial production, and pollution. Teachers guide students through case studies of local industries, discuss pollution sources and their effects, and explore sustainable practices to reduce environmental harm.
