Introducing... A Natural Approach to Chemistry
 |
A Natural Approach to Chemistry takes a fresh new look at how chemistry is used today, in and out of the laboratory.
Emphasis is placed on teaching students why and how chemistry occurs, using the three over-arching themes of energy, atoms, and systems. More traditional topics, such
as states of matter, reactions, pH, electrochemistry, and stoichiometry are also covered in the course. Frequent examples from the human body and the environment are
used to help students make connections to everyday life.

About Lab-Aids
In 1963, LAB-AIDS was founded based on a unique and exciting
idea at the time – helping science teachers to prepare a more
meaningful "hands-on" experience in the classroom. The idea was
based on the belief that a complete lab activity could be
packaged at an economical "cost per student," and that these
"packages" would save teachers hours of lab preparation time.

Look What Teachers
Are Saying...
In a time when education is constantly under fire, SEPUP provides the science teacher with a proven program
that can get the job done and still keep the student's interest in science. There is a dramatic change in the atmosphere
of my classroom when I get out the SEPUP materials. Students see the relevance and importance of the issues we are
examining. There is an excitement as they walk in the room asking, “What are we doing today?”
The SEPUP materials allow me more time and energy to work with students. It is very time-consuming to develop
your own activities. SEPUP provides the structure and materials I need to do “good science” on a daily basis. I
am able to set up an activity that does hands on science in 15-20 minutes in the morning. I know that the activity
works because experienced science teachers around the country have tested it in the field. My time is spent dealing
with student learning.
