Chemistry is a standard introductory course into the
scientific study of the properties of matter and the changes
that matter undergoes during reactions that is designed
for students who are developing their problem-solving
and analytic skills. Students taking Chemistry will regularly
experience hands-on, inquiry-based learning opportunities.
Students will engage in the Science and Engineering
Practices as outlined in A Framework for K-12 Science
Education and the Next Generation Science Standards
to learn about essential Big Ideas such as structure and
properties of matter and chemical reactions.
