Course Syllabus- Condensed Version
My Course Goal and AP Test:
My first goal is to provide you with a solid background in general chemistry and laboratory procedures in order to make your transition to college science courses go smoothly. Secondly, I will provide you with the opportunity to learn the course learning objectives and prepare you for success on the AP Chemistry test.
The AP Chemistry test will take place on May 6th, 2024. We will move swiftly through material to hopefully allow for 2-4 weeks of review before the test.
The instructional time after the test and before the end of the year will be used for additional laboratory investigations and content beyond the curriculum that will best prepare you for college chemistry.
