What's included

16 live meetings
13 hrs 20 mins in-class hours
Homework
1 hour per week. Homework is offered every week but it is optional. The homework will consist of worksheets, short essays, and labs. If the homework is completed and submitted to me then I will grade it and offer feedback. If a letter grade or number grade is requested then it will be assigned to the work otherwise the student will receive feedback on what was done well and what needs to be worked on.
Assessment
Students will receive formative assessments throughout the 16 week class.They are optional and they are done as take home assignments. At the end of the 16 weeks students will receive a summative semester exam. Any student wishing to receive a grade for the class must complete the semester exam.
Grading
Grades are optional. Students may take the class for either no grade, a pass or fail grade or a letter grade. Grades are calculated as shown below… Attendance 15% Participation 15% Homework 20% Semester exam 50% All students who desire a letter grade must complete the semester exam to receive a letter grade. Letter grades will be given in the form of a report card. If a different method of grading is desired that can be discussed as well.

Class Experience

US Grade 9 - 12
In this class students will learn the basics of high school chemistry by looking at  real life examples and examples, videos and labs they can do at home. The class is highly interactive and students are encouraged to ask questions. Students will practice solving equations and reflecting on what they have learned. Students  will also participate in  review games and will be assigned homework and notes. It is recommended that Chemistry 1st semester is completed and  that the student has some knowledge of basic algebra.

All assignments are posted on Sunday and due a week after the class occurs. Extensions will be made on a case by case basis.
At the end of the 16 weeks a midterm will be given and report cards documenting the student's progress will be available by request.
