Introducing Chemistry

Have you ever wondered what things are made of? This unit introduces students to the atom and how chemistry exists in the world around them. It invites us to ask ourselves what all things around us are made of, and introduces the concept of matter. With the help of Ben, a benzene molecule, we will find out what chemistry is and its relevance to human beings. Students will discover the importance of chemistry in the three most important aspects of life and human development: health, food, and consumer goods, and also learn that each type of atom is a chemical element and that chemical elements combine themselves to compose all things, even those not yet discovered!
