Three Weeks Left in 1st Semester!

Welcome back. I hope everyone had a relaxing break with family and friends. We have only 3 weeks left in the semester! It is time to really focus through this new material, which some may find challenging.

We are going to start talking like scientists. So many times people become intimidated by science's long vocab words and chemical names. This week we will break into this science code and reveal its predictable patterns!

We need to be able to read the labels on chemical jars, so we know right away, "Is this safe? Can I touch this? What happens when it comes into contact with other chemicals?" Unlocking the language of chemistry with allow you to easily answer all of these questions.
