These classical science plans will help you teach chemistry to elementary students!

Chemistry for the Grammar Stage provides a first look at atoms, the periodic table, reactions, and more for the classical student. This homeschool science program includes plans for reading assignments from visually appealing encyclopedias, scripted hands-on demonstrations, and customized student notebooking options.

“We used Elemental Science’s Chemistry for the Grammar Stage this past school year. I love that the program is flexible, engaging and very user friendly. The experiments don’t require much more than what’s around the house or at the grocery store. And all my kids (ages 4-12) got something out of each week’s study! Thank you so much for designing a science curriculum that real homeschoolers can use and enjoy.” Review by Abigail M., verified purchaser
