Gifted Biology
This is an introductory course in Biology. During this semester, students will explore the following concepts: science process skills, lab safety,
the scientific method and measurement, ecology the cell, and genetics. These concepts will be learned through lectures, demonstrations, computer quests, and “hands on” laboratory exercises. The emphasis in this course is on learning principles and applying them to real life circumstances. The students will NOT be required to memorize large numbers of facts and terms. However, certain vocabulary is necessary to demonstrate adequate mastery of the subject matter. To succeed in this class, students will have to think, reason, and work.
AP Chemistry
AP Chemistry is designed to be the equivalent of a first year college general chemistry course and follows the College Board’s AP Chemistry syllabus. As such, the course is suitable only for high school students who exhibit high levels of commitment, motivation and academic maturity. This course presents a rigorous treatment of the following concepts: the nature of matter, gas laws, thermodynamics, stoichiometry, bonding, chemical kinetics, chemical equilibria, and more. Students are expected to be motivated and spend extra time studying outside of class. The problem-solving strategies obtained during this course will prepare college-bound students for careers in the sciences, medicine, engineering, and other technical areas.
