What's included
9 live meetings
7 hrs 30 mins in-class hoursHomework
1 hour per week. The students will have homework after each class. They will be asked recall and open-ended questions where they will have to apply what they learned to correctly answer the question. I ask that the students review what was what they learned every day. Optional: I ask that the students dedicate 20-30 minutes of study time each day.Assessment
The students will be assessed as they engage in discussions and as they interact in a question-answer session at the end of class. The students will periodically be given quizzes and/or formative assessments. This will guide my instruction. I will review what the students need.Class Experience
US Grade 7 - 10
In this 9-week course, students will learn about the periodic table and chemical reactions. The content is covered in the 2nd 9-week course in a conventional chemistry class. Engaged students learn content needed to successfully take assessments. Week 1 - Periodic Table Trends - Atomic radius, Ionic radius Week 2 - Periodic Table Trends - Electronegativity, First ionization energy Week 3 - Physical and Chemical Properties of Elements - Density, Conductivity Week 4 - Physical and Chemical Properties of Elements - Malleability, Solubility, and Hardness Week 5 - Metals, Nonmetals, Metalloids & Noble Gases Week 6 - Introduction to Chemical Bonding & Lab Experiment Week 7 - Types of Chemical Bonds & Lab Experiment - Covalent bonds Week 8 - Types of Chemical Bonds & Lab Experiment - Ionic bonds Week 9 - Metallic Bonds The students will learn to use the periodic table as a model to predict the relative properties of elements based on the patterns of electrons in the outermost energy level of atoms. This section will be taught using the periodic table, interactive simulations/games, pictures, video clips, slides, discussions, lecture, and open-ended questions. The students will learn that substances react chemically in characteristic ways. The students will learn that the atoms that make up the original substances are regrouped into different molecules, and these new substances have different properties from those of the reactants. This section will be taught using the periodic table, interactive simulations/games, pictures, video clips, slides, discussions, lecture, and open-ended questions. The 3rd 9-Week Chemistry course will start where this course ends.
Learning Goals
Students will improve their understanding of the composition of the world around them. They will improve their understanding of the periodic table and atoms. Engaged students will improve their ability to respond to Chemistry state assessment questions.
