Class overview
Chemistry is the foundation of understanding how everything works. In this course we will be learning about matter. We will see what it's made of, how it changes, and ways it can react. We will be covering properties, structers of atoms, and the electrons of those atoms and how they bond with other electrons. Once we have those topics mastered, we will use that infromation to better understand how and why differnt types of atoms react the way they do. By the end of the course, students will have a better understanding of how chemistry can be applied in todays world.
About me
I have been teaching at Smith County High School for three years now and I am more excited for this year than I ever have. I have a Bachelors in Biology (environmental and field), and a Masters in education. I worked as a scientist at Pace analytical before teaching and is where my joy of chemistry started.
I've been married for 2 years to my amazingly smart wife Shyenne Kemp, who is also a teacher at SCHS.
