More about Elementary Chemistry

Elementary Chemistry (also called Pre-Level I) is geared towards grades K-4. Students begin to form a solid foundation with the building blocks of chemistry.

In Elementary Chemistry students are introduced to the ABCs of chemistry ; matter, the interactions of matter, the properties of matter, and types of matter.

At this age, kids are particularly interested in learning everything they can about the world around them. Developmentally they are ready to explore and ask questions.

How! Why! When! Where! Young children are full of wonder.

Elementary Chemistry introduces young students to the essential elements for chemistry. Learning real terms and concepts, Elementary Chemistry students start to put their questions into a useful framework for understanding science.

Students are introduced to:

• atoms
• molecules
• chemical reactions
• acids and bases
• mixtures
• polymers
• DNA and protein

Each chapter also comes with an accompanying laboratory experiment. This is where kids get to really learn real science. The Elementary Chemistry experiments help kids learn the first step of the scientific method – making good observations. With the Real Science-4-Kids experiments kids are able to connect the content they have read in the text book to an actual scientific experiment helping them retain the information they have learned.

You will need

• Student text
• Teacher’s Manual
• Laboratory Workbook

The ElementaryChemistry set (text book, teacher’s manual, and workbook) will cover one semester or 12-16 weeks of instruction.
