In this Chemistry class learners will receive segment 3 of 3 of the High School Chemistry Full Curriculum class. This class is aligned with the NGSS standards.  This multiday class is designed for someone who needs to complete a High School Chemistry course as well as someone who is currently enrolled in a Chemistry course and wants additional help.  If a learner completes all three segments they will have completed a full curriculum of a High School level Chemistry course that meets the NGSS standards.

Each week in this course students will view an interesting interactive presentation.  Some classes will include live and recorded demonstrations and optional in class experiments.  On weeks that we have experiments, I will perform the experiments on camera.  The students have the option to perform the experiment at home along with me or observe me performing the experiment.  If students wish to participate at home, required supplies for each experiment will be provided at least a week in advance. Most if not all optional experiments use simple household items. 

Throughout the lesson the learners progress will be measured through interactive games, quizzes, and questions within the Nearpod presentation.  Learners will be responding on their own devices.

Each week that a learner joins they will receive homework worksheets.  These worksheets will provide automatic feedback on their progress.  

This class will be fun and interactive, we will learn through presentations, experimentation, and games.  

Learners will NOT be required to login to any website.  I do use Nearpod and Kahoot in my lessons.  Learners may need to click on a link but no login or accounts will be needed.  These sites are used to help make the class even more interactive and fun.

There is a free textbook that can be used along with this class CK-12 Chemistry for High School.  The book can be freely viewed online at CK-12.org (https://flexbooks.ck12.org/cbook/ck-12-chemistry-flexbook-2.0/)

45 mins are set aside for each meeting.  However, meetings may run 45 +/- 10 mins mostly due to the unpredictability of experimentation time.
