They can make their own magic potion. In this exciting course learners will use chemistry and the scientific method to predict how liquids will change colors when other liquids are added. Will it be blue, red, pink, purple, green? Let's find out! Students will learn the basics of matter and how they interact to make different matter (e.g. chemical reactions). We will use the scientific method to predict, record, conclude, and suggest improvements on our experiment. Learners will be able to interact and collaborate ideas with classmates during the class.
Learning Goals
Students learn the methods of prediction, testing, recording results, and improvement. Students will be able to use hands-on activity using everyday items to create a fun and exciting experiment on their own after the class.

Teacher expertise and credentials
2 Degrees
Master's Degree in Science from University of Alabama
Bachelor's Degree in Science from University of South Carolina
I am a middle school and high school math and science teacher with 10+years of experience. Additionally, I am a homeschooling dad of 15+years who has four kids that are four different types of learners.
I have the privilege to teach many subject areas, but chemistry is my favorite as it applies to all other areas of science. My opinion is that if a student understands major chemical concepts, other sciences become more clear.
I hold a MS and BS in the natural sciences.
