* Focus On Middle School Chemistry is part of the Focus On series created by Dr. Rebecca W. Keller.  Although designed for 5th – 8th  grade, the reading level is right on target for 5th and 6th grade students.  The text explores chemistry topics with on-level readings and hands-on activities.  In addition, students will be putting their knowledge into action with fun chemistry experiments provided by the teacher that will add to our understanding on the “hows and whys” of basic chemistry concepts.   This text will provide upper elementary students a solid introduction to chemistry with engaging text, colorful illustrations, and easy to understand definitions for this grade level.  Additional readings and materials will be provided by the teacher throughout the semester in order to specifically target this upper elementary class.
