The Colorful World of Chemistry with
Ms. Smith
Created by Alecia Smith

Hello
Scientists!
Ms. Alecia Smith, your
instructor, has taught at Grayson High School for
two years. Grayson High School is in the Gwinnett
County Public School District and among the top
5% of high schools in the nation. Until recently, Grayson was
known as "Gwinnett's Best Kept Secret".
Ms. Smith graduated from the
University of Georgia in 2005 with a
Bachelor's in Psychology and minor in
Child & Family Development. In January 2006, she began substitute teaching at Grayson High
School and has been employed there ever since. Ms. Smith enjoys
dance
and is the Head Coach of Grayson's Competition
Dance Team. Ms. Smith also enjoys walking her two dogs, Meka
and Rocky, being outdoors, and watching movies. Ms. Smith
believes Chemistry is colorful, fun, and exciting, and she hopes to
spread the joy of science to all her students!
Ms. Smith teaches
10th grade Technical Chemistry with team teachers,
Mrs. Schoolcraft and Mr. Canova. In this class, our students
learn about the composition, structure, and properties of matter.
Our students study the periodic table, chemical reactions, and
stoichiometry. We do several fun activities, including a spectroscopy lab
and a tie-dye lab (see
links for examples).
