Description:  Welcome to the fascinating world of chemistry! In this engaging and highly interactive course, we’ll embark on an exciting journey that reveals the amazing ways chemistry influences our daily lives using the main content from Chemistry 101: An Overview of God’s Chemical World, as well as Ellen McHenry Basement Workshop books and activities. Students will dive into the core concepts of chemistry, including atoms and molecules, chemical reactions, states of matter, the periodic table, and more through games, activities, and hands-on experiments! Expect to be challenged, inspired, and motivated as we explore the science that makes everything tick! No prior experience is necessary—just a curious mind and a willingness to experiment. Join us as we unlock the mysteries of the molecular world and discover the wonders of chemistry together! Although this is a comprehensive course, it is not recommended as a stand alone chemistry course for students who wish to pursue a science based career and need more advanced mathematics concepts than will be presented on this class.
