Themes• Chemistry for ALL students• Chemistry is everywhere,

every day• Learn chemistry by

DOING chemistry• Uses a “5-E” model,

supports inquiry • Emphasize chemistry of

the body and environment• No open flames, toxic materials,

fume hoods, or disposal issues• Supports “physics first” as well as

traditional approaches; endorsed by National Association of Governors

A Coordinated System

• Full color textbook• Full color lab manual• Unique equipment package

with a probe system thatincludes a spectrophotometerand a heater

• Teacher’s Guide• Classroom animations and video• Copyright 2010
