ANNOUNCEMENTS
Welcome to PreAP Chemistry... I'm glad you're here!
GOOD STUDY HABITS:
* After your syllabus packet is distributed in class, READ through the unit
objectives.
* Take GOOD NOTES during lectures. Leave a few inches blank at the bottom of
each notes page to summarize the information contained on that page.
* READ the corresponding chapters in the
textbook.
* ASK QUESTIONS in class!
* Work through example problems from class again, and do some problems from your
textbook or the website as well.
* When you come in for tutoring, have a PURPOSE for your time there. Don't
simply arrive hoping to be told what you need to know.
REMINDERS:
*
Success in PreAP Chemistry requires decent to above-average math skills! It is
recommended that you be enrolled in or have completed ALGEBRA II.
*
You will not survive without a scientific calculator!
If the cost is prohibitive I recommend the TI-30X IIS (available at most stores
for about $15).
* Turn in all required forms: The PreAP
Contract, Lab Safety Contract, and Course Guidelines Acknowledgement. Without
these you cannot participate in any class activities!
IMPORTANT DATES:
* First day of school: AUGUST 23
