Teaching Chemistry
Homeschool Science Suggestions
ROCK Meeting Supplement
by Teresa Gallagher
Because I have a science background and teach homeschool science everyone keeps asking me what we do. I have been trying to use the Classical Schooling method of teaching in a logical, orderly progression, as described in "The Well Trained Mind". The authors of that popular book are not scientists, and I find their approach to the sciences to be rather scattered, so I've been adapting as I go along.
This information is geared toward kids under age 15 or so. Once they older, they are generally either in high school or can take college science classes.
You don't teach a child to read before he learns the abc's. So here's a thought: Teach kids about the elements before trying to teach them advanced chemistry.
