The scope and size of the chemistry curriculum is continuously expanding, but not the time given to teach the material. Hear about one teacher's solution to this problem: implementing Take Home labs as a part of the curriculum. In addition to the obvious curricular focus, learn about several other great aspects of take home labs including parent and family involvement, the increased relevance reinforced by the use of “real” materials, and the opportunity for our students to experience science as something that happens everywhere, not just in the science classroom. You will also hear about the development of the labs, go through several ready to use take home labs for both Chemistry 1 and AP Chemistry, and learn how to incorporate this idea into your curriculum.
