Charlotte Mason
A methodology based on the work of a 19th century educator who maintained that children learn best from literature (Living Books), not textbooks.
Classical
A methodology based on the Latin Trivium (three stages of learning), including the grammar stage (memorization and facts), logic stage (critical thinking), and rhetoric stage (developing/defending ideas).
Unit Study
A thematic or topical approach centered around one topic that integrates multiple subject areas.
Montessori (Discovery)
A methodology based on the work of a 20th century educator that emphasizes student and sensory-driven discovery learning and real-life applications.

Publisher's Description of Master's Class High School Chemistry Student Text
Chemistry is the study of the composition, structure, and properties of matter. It is through an understanding of chemistry that the products that have benefited society were discovered, and technologies to sustain the environment were put in place. Knowledge of how matter changes will give us an insight into the origin of life, so we can realize that life could only have been formed by a supernatural act of creation, not by a process of change over time.
- High school science course with lab curriculum
- Lab experiments are included with guidance on where to order the lab equipment and supplies needed for the course
- Based on the principle that those who can understand and apply information do much better than those who simply memorize material
This course has been taught by Dr. Englin for several years, with students going on to medical and graduate school. He wanted to develop a series of courses that would give students the tools to help them succeed in higher education. The comprehensive material has God the Creator as its foundation.
Category Description for Master's Chemistry
This chemistry course was specifically written for homeschool use, easy to implement and Christian worldview based. Master Books saw a need and Dr. Dennis Englin put into print a course he had been teaching to homeschool students for many years. The course covers foundational Chemistry concepts and applications, all while keeping God and Bible in the equation. Algebra 1 is a prerequisite to this course which fulfills one high school credit.
The Student text is divided into 28 chapters covering metric measurements, chemical solutions, molecular mass and atomic theory, preparing molar solutions, chemical reactions, equations, moles, grams of reactant and product, electron configurations, the Periodic Table, ionic and covalent bonds, metal atoms, batteries, acids and bases, buffers, chemistry of carbon, organic chemistry, biochemistry, rates of chemical reactions, and environmental chemistry. The end of each chapter includes one lab. Chapters are easy to follow with an abundance of graphics and illustrations, sure to appeal to more visual students. Each chapter lists objectives and vocabulary, and notes and definitions are found in colored boxes throughout. Labs are broken down into steps with a list of required materials, purpose, and procedure. The procedure for each lab is broken down into numbered steps, some special equipment is required. Supplies used in the labs are alcohol burner, barium hydroxide, burette, burette clamp, ring stand, copper metal strip, economy pocket scale, Erlenmeyer flask, eyedropper, filter paper, glass beakers, stirring rod, graduated cylinder, laboratory scoop, Lugol's solution, Mohr pipette and pipette pump, molecular model kit, multimeter, petri dishes, pH paper, sodium acetate, soil testing kit, spectroscope analysis kit, test tube kit, transfer pipette, weighing boats (aluminum), wire with alligator clips, zinc metal strip. Please contact our office for a more complete list and quantities. Appendices include helpful laboratory procedure information, a chronological history of Christian chemists, and a glossary of chemistry vocabulary. 295 pgs, pb.
The Teacher Guide includes student worksheets and lab reports w/ samples for grading purposes, a weekly lesson schedule, supply list, instructions for quizzes and exams and a sheet for recording scores: 28 quizzes, 8 exams and answer keys.
This Chemistry course can be done more independently; the parent acts as a guide to come alongside. Overall, this is a good, solid high school introductory Chemistry and prepares students for college level sciences. Students will learn the basics of Chemistry and how to write lab reports while carrying out the procedures. Dr. Englin makes chemistry understandable and doable in the homeschool setting. ~ Donna
