Statement of Problem

A look through science education literatures in the past two decades and summaries of chief examiners’ reports of results by external examination bodies for exampleWest African Examination Council (WAEC), indicate that all is not well in the teaching and learning process of chemistry.

Poor performance of students in chemistry as a subject is on the rise. On an average scale,more than 40% of students who sat for chemistry in the senior secondary school examinations fail. Poor performance as recorded by WACE is also collaborated by results from National Examination Council (NECO), (Omoifo, 2012).

Poor enrolment in chemistry and its related courses is a clear indication that there is a great problem of lack of interest. For the fact that chemistry principles are used in our day to day human activities and its peculiarity in the field of sciences students ought tobe very much interested in chemistry and the level of enrolment ought to be high. But over the years enrolment in the subject has been poor, indicating that the level of interest has significantly dropped. The inability of students to relate chemistry lessons to local practices in their day to day home environment is also worrisome. Will incorporating local practices enhance students’ interest and achievement in chemistry?

To this effect, this study therefore, is an attempt to incorporate local practices (chemistry at home) in the teaching of chemistry at school.
