We are pleased to announce Clover Garden's Chemistry program for
the 2009-2010 school year. Students entering the Chemistry
program are expected to meet any math and algebra pre-requisite
as this course will include significant work with calculations
and formulas. It will follow the North Carolina Standard
Course of study and include laboratory activities that will
provide practical laboratory skills used in the industry.
In 2009-2010, this course will be taught as an honors course
which will include more rigor and prepare students for college
chemistry coursework.
The chemistry course encourages students to continue their
investigation of the structure of matter along with chemical
reactions and the conservation of energy in these reactions.
Inquiry is applied to the study of the transformation,
composition, structure, and properties of substances. The course
focuses on basic chemical concepts and incorporates activities
that promote investigations to reinforce the concepts. The
curriculum includes inquiry into the following content areas:
- Structure of atoms.
- Structure and properties of matter.
- Chemical reactions.
- Conservation of energy and matter.
- Interaction of energy and matter.
