화학 킥스타트: 고등학교 성공을 위한 기초

Chemistry Kickstart – Foundations for High School Success
This 6-week interactive course is designed to prepare middle school students for high school chemistry by building a strong foundation in key scientific concepts. Through engaging lessons, real-world applications, and problem-solving activities, students will explore topics such as atomic structure, the periodic table, chemical bonding, reactions, and stoichiometry. The course emphasizes critical thinking and hands-on learning to help students develop confidence before entering a high school chemistry class.

What Will Be Taught?

Each week, we will cover a fundamental chemistry topic to help students develop a clear understanding of basic principles. Topics include:

The scientific method and the role of chemistry in everyday life

Matter and atomic structure, including protons, neutrons, and electrons

The periodic table, chemical families, and element properties

Chemical bonding, including ionic and covalent compounds

Balancing chemical equations and recognizing different types of reactions

Acids, bases, and solutions with real-world chemistry applications

Introduction to stoichiometry, moles, and simple calculations
