Class Experience

In this course, we will look at balancing equations from a beginners perspective. This is a one-time course that will have your child ready to tackle their upcoming science class. It is also a great refresher for students looking to brush up on their prior knowledge. We will start with reviewing terminology and the basic math skills necessary to balance equations on a set of prepared slides. We will discuss the purpose of balancing equations and we will go over the steps necessary to balancing equations. We will end the class by working practice problems together.
