  1. WELCOME PARENTS!!!OPEN HOUSE 09/26/19 Ms. Menendez Chemistry/Chemistry Honors

  2. CHEMISTRY • Chemistry is a think and apply kind of subject.  • Many times it’s the first-time students encounter this level of rigor.  • Math and science are incorporated in ways that the students may not be used to.

  3. Helpful Hints • Encourage students to keep up-to-date with assignments and studying. • It is recommended that they write down any questions or problems and get the answer next class from the teacher. Ask questions sooner than later, because later may be too late. • Remember the more they practice, the easier it gets, and  homework is practice. Chemistry is a cumulative subject, and  students are expected to be familiar with concepts studied earlier in the year. • Students have plenty of resources to help them in their mastery of the subject.
