Hello! Welcome to Ms. May's Science page!
Chemistry-
Students will learn concepts and applications of the different branches of chemistry (matter, atomic structure, chemical bonding, moles, solutions, acids and bases, and carbon compounds). Laboratory investigations are central to science; therefore, students will be required to participate in labs and complete detailed lab reports.
An outline of the course is:
Unit 1: Measurements and Problem Solving
Unit 2: Matter
Unit 3: Atoms and the Periodic Table
Unit 4: Chemical Bonding and The Formation of Compounds
Unit 5: Moles, Reactions and Stoichiometry
Unit 6: States of Matter, Energy Changes, and LeChatelier’s Principle
Unit 7: Solutions and Acids and Bases
Unit 8: Carbon and Its Compounds
Biology II (H)-
(Biology II (H) will be taught as Anatomy and Physiology)
Human Anatomy and Physiology is a biology course for students interested in learning more about how the body works. This course is an introduction to the terminology, anatomy, and physiology of the human body as it applies to everyday life. This course is designed to introduce the student to the structures and functions of the human body, and to provide a basis for understanding how changes in structure and function can lead to injury and disease.
