Course+Outline

Course Outline Manitoba’s science curriculum provides a foundation for the development of scientific literacy in all students. The Chemistry 40S curriculum contributes to this goal. It is a challenging course that builds on what was learnt in Chemistry 30S and will involve a considerable amount of work from the student. We will be using the text book Chemistry (Prentice Hall) so please remember to bring it to every lesson along with your calculator, periodic table and ion chart. You will be provided with a new formula sheet specifically for Chemistry 40. In order for you to get the most out of this course I would like to incorporate computer animations, demos and practical work into the course but this will involve your co-operation - The Safety Agreement that you signed in Chemistry 30 remains in effect. Please bring writing implements, calculator etc to all lessons. I expect work to be handed in on loose-leaf but you may well find it more convenient to write your own notes in a notebook.
