Week 3

Chemistry students recieved a study guide on Friday, which we will go over on Monday (Aug 22nd). We will have our first test over Matter, Mixtures, and Changes on Tuesday. On Wednesday, we will be starting the unit on Atomic Stucture. If all goes as planned, the students will have their first lab involving the bunsen burner on Friday. Students should dress accordingly for labs. I have uploaded more photos on the home page of the students performing "Is Carbon Dioxide Present?" lab. This lab was very simple and used to show one of the four indicators of a chemical reaction (they learned those this week) and a mini lesson on acids and bases. It will be another busy week. I know there is a volleyball game Monday night so encourage your child to take their study guide with them and study at the game! I will be there if they have any questions. Please email me or call me if you have any questions.
