Course Goals

Upon successful completion of Chemistry, students will be able to understand:
  • The fundamental nature of matter, including its composition and the structure of atoms.
  • How atoms combine to form molecules and how molecular structure influences properties.
  • The different states of matter and the factors affecting phase changes and gas behavior.
  • Quantitative relationships in chemical reactions (stoichiometry) and the properties of solutions, acids, and bases.
  • The role of energy in chemical processes, including thermodynamics and redox reactions.
  • The principles of chemical equilibrium and its importance in various chemical systems and environmental contexts.
  • Connecting abstract chemical concepts to observable phenomena and real-world applications.
  • Utilizing mathematical tools and reference materials to solve chemistry problems.

Considerations for 10th Grade

This chemistry course offers a great introduction to the subject for 10th graders, making it engaging by connecting chemistry to everyday themes. It covers fundamental concepts like atoms, molecules, and basic reactions. Success will be easier if your child has a good foundation in basic math skills. Encourage them to understand the ideas and participate in hands-on labs. Some topics will be challenging, but learning to tackle them is part of the process.

Considerations for 11th Grade

For 11th graders, this course can build a strong chemistry foundation, whether it's their first time or a review. They'll explore concepts in more depth and tackle more complex problem-solving, requiring solid math skills. This curriculum is excellent preparation for more advanced science courses they might take later. Encourage them to connect different topics and practice the quantitative aspects. It's a stepping stone for future scientific studies.
