IB Grade 9 Chemistry

Welcome to "IB Grade 9 Chemistry: Foundations of Matter"! This comprehensive online course is specifically designed for students embarking on their International Baccalaureate (IB) Middle Years Programme (MYP) journey in Chemistry. Aligned perfectly with the IB MYP Chemistry Guide for Grade 9, this course will provide a robust understanding of fundamental chemical principles, fostering critical thinking, inquiry-based learning, and an appreciation for the role of chemistry in our world. Through engaging video lessons, interactive simulations, practical demonstrations (where possible via virtual labs or guided experiments), and thought-provoking assignments, you will explore the building blocks of matter, chemical reactions, the periodic table, and the quantitative aspects of chemistry. We will emphasize the interdisciplinary nature of science, the development of scientific literacy, and the application of chemical concepts to real-world scenarios. This course aims not only to prepare you for future IB science studies but also to cultivate a lifelong curiosity about the world around you. Prerequisites: No prior formal chemistry knowledge is required, but a basic understanding of scientific inquiry and mathematics (algebraic manipulation) will be beneficial.
