YEHS 402 - Chemistry (Grade 9-12)

No explosions, but lots of other cool stuff! This course is designed to provide a framework to develop literacy in chemistry. Learn to value and use science as a process of obtaining knowledge based upon observable evidence. Participate in a hands-on, student-centered approach to instruction, with the student as the scientist. Come learn about the atom, then study chemical systems and factors affecting these systems. Study chemical analysis and design, perform experiments, and determine the relevancy of chemistry in your life. (Each class is recommended for one semester science core credit. The two sections should be taken consecutively for a full year of new high school credit.)
