Chemistry: Precision and Design

This excited class will start off with subatomic particles and the periodic table and graduate into balancing chemical equations and understanding chemical bonds. This will be a "hands on" year that everyone will thoroughly enjoy. Since this year will contain several equations and some complicated concepts, we will precede slowly.  This means that a couple of chapters will be skipped so we can grasp the essential concepts to understanding Chemistry.
