Carolina Investigations® for AP® Chemistry
We designed this series to help AP® Chemistry teachers meet the College Board’s curriculum and lab requirements. You can teach your lab as a guided activity or an inquiry activity.
Inquiries in Science® Chemistry Kits
This modular series supports the 5E learning cycle of engage, explore, explain, extend, and evaluate to help high school students understand chemistry concepts that are hard to grasp. Use the kits individually, as a multi-kit topic strand, or collectively as a series.
Carolina ChemKits®
Looking for a more traditional lab? Each kit in the Carolina ChemKits® series focuses on a single chemistry topic, and you can complete the activities in one class period.
