Chemistry Expectations v9 1011 A SandoyWhy Chemistry
Graduate SME HSNeed 3 Lab Science credits
KS Regents CurriculumNeed CM1 or PH1
College Most degrees require College CM1 or PH1College CM1= High School CM1 + CM2OR Twice as much, half the time, less help
CareerHealth Care = College CM1 + CM2Engineering or Chemistry Note DNA/medicine revolution
Chemistry Expectations v9 1011 A SandoyWhat predicts Success?
College#1= Math Skills
HS CalculusConversions (mile-ft etc)
#2=Effort#3= Prior KnowledgeNote: professors don’t do 1 or 2; but do #3*Survey of 20,000 students & another survey of every physics/ chemistry professor in KS
High School#1 Effort/Attend
IA students get As#2 Math Skills
Alg2 preferredText written for Alg2Avg stdt in ALG2/PC
#3 Prior KnowledgePS can help if strugglingPS can hinder if lazy

Chemistry Expectations v9 1011 A SandoyWhat Predicts Test Failure?
Effort to learn < Desire for grade Harder test questions not attempted
In class or homework on these not doneE.G. calculating excess reagent
Easy test questions missedIn class or homework on these seen as busyworkE.g. mol- mol conversion
Not listening or using work time in class Talking, texting etcWaiting to learn it all from your tutor

Chemistry Expectations v9 1011 A SandoySME Chem1 difference
• But reinforcing sections of text not taught, treated as redundant- e.g. chapter 9, much of chapter 12/17
• Some students may comprehend less
• More taught during course - Can be better prep for college Concepts from text

Chemistry Expectations v9 1011 A SandoySME Chem1 difference
• But can be too complex- must tie together entire chapter and master new lab techniques
• Some students may comprehend less
• 2nd semester labs summarize unit - Links theory to reality Concepts from text

Skills from practice
Chemistry Expectations v9 1011 A SandoyHow to adjust?
#1: Master knowledge, not just enough to do well on the test- You will use knowledge later, with limited review
#2: Get help early, if you struggle (students, teacher, tutor)- Chapters 5, 8, and 10 on are much harder. If you wait to get help you will probably never recover- There are plenty of additional worksheets to do
#3: Do the worksheets, they are repetitious - So are drills in any sport, practice makes perfect
#4: Read the labs before you do them, in 2nd semester they are too complex to comprehend if you just show up and do them- If you understand the 2nd semester labs, you have learned
• More taught• Less
reinforcement• Complex labs

Chemistry Expectations v9 1011 A SandoySo What are Class
GoalsLearn life skills (effort)
Prepare, try, finish, cooperate, be considerate…
Prepare for college (math)Work chemistry math problemsApply dimensional analysis/conversions
Learn basic Chemistry (knowledge)
Apply theory in word problems & labsRelate theory to real world
BE
SAFE
Chemistry Expectations v9 1011 A SandoyRules “do the right thing”Prepare …e.g. on time, ready for quiz/ work
“Fortune favors the prepared”
Try…………………e.g. be here, work most tasks“Half of life is just showing up”
Finish……e.g. complete tasks on own, extra effort
“Winners never quit … copiers fail tests”
Cooperate ………….…e.g. allow teaching, be safe,
“Silence is golden”“You can hear a lot just by listening”
Be considerate ……e.g. allow learning, helpful, neat, discrete: “Do unto others…”
Stay in seat, 2/table,less A
I dismiss; no throw; use near restroom
Take answer key, no keys
Lose restroom, pass, longer wait for all
Chemistry Expectations v9 1011 A SandoyHow- Discipline
Tardy1= warn ; 2= call home3= 15min t detention4= 30 min t detention5= office referral
Disrupt1= warn2= hall, talk3= move4= hall, call home, 15 min detention5= hall, 30 min detention,6= office referral
Cell Phones1= No purse/
bag on table2= Suspect = warn3= See/hear= office referral
Chemistry Expectations v9 1011 A SandoyHow-Grades
50% Tests ………………… no notes, ~1 page guide
Test/final grade is minimum grade, if ~all work doneMore time case by case basis
10% Daily Quizzes……… open notes~12 questions from work/labs; even or odd by seat
15% Work5%: in class, 5% homework, 5% on task/ listeningMust show work > correct; late 50%, > 2-30 days late 10%
25% Labs Lab report + safety; insight >> accuracy >> completion
Extra credit scored at 5 problems= 1 regular problem
Exceptional job … early work … neat ..more/harder problems
For detailed progress report, provide e mail address
Semester=18% final + Qtr grades
Can make up @ 50% before/ after school for 30 days
Neatness counts
knowledge
more reps= more skill
