Course description

The high school chemistry course is a two-segment study of the foundations of chemistry; building on the concepts and scientific thinking laid in middle school science. Students use scientific inquiry and higher-order problem solving as they explore the composition; properties; and changes of matter and their applications through interactive simulations; engineering solutions; and virtual and hands-on experiences. Scientific inquiry; research; experimental procedures; data collection and analysis; and making inferences are an integral part of the learning experience. In addition; technology; engineering; and mathematics (STEM) concepts are integrated throughout the course. Through phenomenon-based learning; students will be able to demonstrate a vast understanding of the importance of chemistry in the world; enabling them to apply these principles to their everyday lives and our global society.

Hours per week for lab: Students will work an average of 1-2 hours per week on laboratory activities.
