Chemistry
 Course Description: Students explore the fundamental principles of chemistry which characterize the properties of matter and how it reacts. Computer-based and traditional laboratory techniques are used to obtain, organize and analyze data. Conclusions are developed using both qualitative and quantitative procedures. Topics include, but are not limited to: measurement, atomic structure, electron configuration, the periodic table bonding, gas laws, properties of liquids and solids, solutions, stoichiometry, reactions, kinetics, equilibrium, acids and bases, and nuclear chemistry. Class Structure: The beginning of each class will begin with a “Bellringer”. Students will have work to be doing as soon as they enter the classroom. A short discussion will occur about the Bellringer and then the main lesson will begin. The main portion of class may include any of the following: discussion, reading, labs, activities, lecture, stations, experiments, etc. Many units will end with a project or cumulative test with smaller quizzes or other forms assessments throughout. Class Materials: Two Composition Notebooks ( One for Lecture Notes/One for Formal Lab Reports) Blue or Black Pens (for Formal Lab Reports) Scientific Calculator. The one pictured below is the calculator I recommend.
