Abstract Micro project teaching is a feasible method to cultivate the core competency of chemistry in the stage of compulsory education. Focused on “manufacture and consumption of preserved egg” as the micro project theme, a micro chemistry teaching project titled “systematic review of chemical properties of acid, alkali and salt” in a junior high school was implemented. This project comprised six sub-projects: material selection, mud blending, encase egg with mud, seal preservation, consumption, and after-class practice. In the process of accomplishing six sub-projects, the instructor created problem situation, and excavated key knowledge, as well as established knowledge framework, helping students develop scientific thinking in classification, analysis, induction and synthesis. It also intended to engage students in applying chemical knowledge to solve practical problems in their daily lives.
