Teaching Method
Traditional
Teacher-centered curriculum commonly used in classrooms that may include a text, teacher manual, tests, etc.
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.
Other

Religious Content
Secular
Contains content contrary to common Christian beliefs (i.e. evolution).
Neutral
Avoids religious or theoretical topics or presents multiple viewpoints without preference.
Christian/Religious
Faith-based or including instructional religious content.
Learning Modality
Auditory
Learns through listening, talking out loud or reading out loud.
Visual
Learns through seeing, prefers written instructions and visual materials.
Kinesthetic/Tactile (Hands-On)
Learns through moving, doing and touching.
Multi-Sensory
Curriculum that employ a variety of activities/components.
Presentation
Sequential
Curriculum progresses through well-defined learning objectives. Emphasizes mastery before moving to the next topic.
Spiral
Topics and concepts are repeated from level to level, adding more depth at each pass and connecting with review.
Conceptual/Topical

Student-led materials; parent acts as a facilitator.
Medium Teacher Involvement
A mix of teacher-led time and independent student work.
High Teacher Involvement
Teacher-led lessons; may utilize discussions, hands-on activities and working together.

Description
Written as the lab manual to accompany Novare’s General Chemistry and Chemistry for Accelerated Students, the Chemistry Experiments for High School works best in a fully outfitted laboratory with standard equipment. The Manual includes full procedural and safety instructions, material lists, and discussion questions for 20 experiments, along with instructor notes. Those wanting to include experiments for the Novare Chemistry courses at home or in a small private facility without full equipment, should consider Chemistry Experiments for High School at Home.
Publisher's Description of Chemistry Experiments for High School
A laboratory practicum incorporating a series of quantitative experiments is an essential component of any high school or college chemistry course. It is one thing to read about precipitations; it is another thing to see the precipitates form with your own eyes. Lab experience also provides students with practice using standard laboratory apparatus and methods. Finally, there is nothing like laboratory practice to give students a feel for how the stoichiometric calculations learned in the classroom relate to the predictions and results of an actual experiment
This manual is the student's guide to accompany General Chemistry and Chemistry for Accelerated Students. Included are instructions for 20 experiments, materials lists, safety issues, discussion questions and more. Pages are perforated for easy removal of the Short Form Report Sheet which is to be filled out and turned in after each experiment.
The experiments in this manual are designed for schools with standard laboratory facilities and equipment. If your school or home does not yet have such facilities, we suggest you take a look at our other experiments book, Chemistry Experiments for High School at Home (CEHSH). The experiments in CEHSH are rigorously quantitative, just as they are in CEHS.
For chemistry, or any high school science experiment, we recommend The Student Lab Report Handbook as a companion guide to show students how to prepare excellent lab reports.
Category Description for Novare General Chemistry
Intended for use at the 11th grade level, this mastery-based chemistry course takes a bit of a different approach from other chemistry courses. Focusing on fewer topics with more depth, Novare Science takes a Kingdom Perspective to current scientific theories. Prior to the course, students should have successfully completed Algebra 1, Introductory Physics and Biology. Algebra 2 should be taken concurrently. By following the author's suggestion of physics first, the student can more easily work through General Chemistry and have a greater understanding of the concepts. Through General Chemistry, students are brought into the real world of chemistry through detailed and clearly explained text, laboratory experiments, and carefully constructed exercises and quizzes. The history of modern chemistry, mathematics and technical communication is emphasized throughout. Typically, you need a lab component with chemistry courses. No labs are included in the Student Text, so the author recommends Chemistry Experiments for High School at Home for those who are homeschooling. This book has low-cost alternatives to expensive equipment and recommendations for procuring small quantities of chemicals. Optional and helpful resources include the Student Lab Report Handbook and the optional Lab Kit. Required components include the Student Edition Text, Digital Resources, Complete Solutions and Answers, and the Chemistry Experiments for High School at Home to meet the lab requirements on your high school transcript. Available separately or as a convenient package for the full Program.

Can the experiments be an addition to any chemistry text or do they only make sense to the student when used with corresponding text?
Yes, they could be an addition to any chemistry text but you will want to try to coordinate them topically.
