Ib Chemistry Reflection

Steve Chan- In the 2nd quarter of IB Chemistry the class has focused on balancing chemical equations, converting between chemistry units, finding correct formulas, and the properties of gases. The labs involved discovering more about chemical reactions, calculating the volume of a gas, and solution preparation. When we return in the 3rd quarter we will be studying the topic of atomic structure. Steve continues to struggle on the exams for class. He has made more of an effort to solve sample problems in class but often does not attempt the practice problems students are asked to do outside of class. To be successful he will need to apply more effort to practicing chemistry. Reading the text before we start topics in class could also be beneficial for him as well. He has shown a strong interest in lab experiments and able to follow most directions independently while performing the labs.

He often participates in class by solving sample problems and asking questions. A few times he has forgotten to complete the practice problems students are asked to do outside of class or has misplaced his lab papers for experiments. These instances have not resulted in a drop in his test grades however as he does well in preparing for exams. He takes particular interest in the lab portion of class and is always excited to try new chemistry
