Please only use for remediation purposes for classes of 2021, 2022, 2023, 2024. This introductory course is designed to meet college entrance requirements and prepare students for the worlds of school, work and citizenship. Students learn the fundamental concepts and knowledge of chemistry through thematic units that develop thinking and analytical skills as well as traditional chemistry subject matter and problem solving. Students study the relationship of chemistry to plate tectonics and ocean acidification. They use the science and engineering practices to deepen their understanding of science. Inquiry and the nature of science are emphasized, and all student activities have clearly defined goals for both the content material and thinking skills involved. Laboratory activities have clearly labeled safety precautions and hazardous waste disposal procedures. | |
