General Chemistry - Part I (Ongoing)
Class experience
US Grade 9 - 12
I have set this course up to mirror a general chemistry course using NGSS standards. This will ensure that your student has a cohesive class sequenced in a manner designed to help students make sense of the material and the reasons behind learning this subject matter. Each week will include note sheets, practice problems, and a review. I will have suggestions and examples of chemistry lab activities, but due to the format of this course, it does not include a mandatory laboratory...
As stated by the NGSS: ⭐HS-PS1-1: 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. ⭐HS-PS1-2: Construct and revise an explanation for the outcome of a simple chemical reaction based on the outermost electron states of atoms, trends in the periodic table, and knowledge of the patterns of chemical properties. ⭐HS-PS1-4: Develop a model to illustrate that the release or absorption of energy from a chemical reaction system depends upon the changes in total bond energy. ⭐HS-PS1-5: Apply scientific principles and evidence to explain the effects of changing the temperature or concentration of the reacting particles on the rate at which a reaction occurs. ⭐HS-PS1-6: Refine the design of a chemical system by specifying a change in conditions that would produce increased amounts of products at equilibrium. ⭐HS-PS1-7: Use mathematical representations to support the claim that atoms and mass are conserved during a chemical reaction.
Homework Offered
Assigned Weekly - Practice Problems. Sometimes Videos and Articles will be assigned. Homework is optional but strongly encouraged. Keys will be provided after the assignment's due date. **If parents want a grade for this course, a copy of the completed work needs to be submitted through the classroom to the teacher directly using the teacher communication tab.0 - 1 hours per week outside of class
Assessments Offered
At the end of each unit, there will be a unit test. Students can complete the test independently on their schedule.Grades Offered
1 file available upon enrollmentThe teacher-provided note sheets, supplemental video links, and articles that students will need will be provided the Sunday before class each week.
In addition to the Outschool classroom, this class uses:
I keep the cost of materials to a minimum since we have so much available online, but these are a few excellent ones I plan to utilize. Free Resources Free Flexbook - www.ck12.org The Free High School Science Text. I will send specific pages as a pdf. YouTube Channels Melissa Maribel Crash Course Chemistry Reference (optional) Everything You Need to Ace Chemistry in One Big Fat Notebook (Big Fat Notebooks) The Usborne Illustrated Dictionary of Chemistry
Hi, and thank you for stopping to look into my courses! I am an experienced science educator with over ten years of experience in the classroom. I live in Indiana with my husband, son, and dog. I hold a bachelor's degree in biology, a Texas...
