The program is designed to reach the public, particularly elementary and secondary school children, with positive messages about chemistry. The theme for this year is “Fast or Slow … Chemistry Makes It Go!” You can:
- Explore the Chem Clash Online Chemistry Game Show – A free live interactive chemistry game show where groups of students and early-career chemists compete to out-answer the competition and bring home the title of ChemClash champion!
- Read the current issue of “Celebrating Chemistry” – includes some activities and experiments along with educational articles
- Learn more under Educational Resources.
Happy Chemistry Week!
