These lecture presentations were designed for my high school Chemistry I Honors class. Students of high school and college general chemistry may find them useful as a supplement to their own class notes or as a review. Teachers, please feel free to use and modify them for your own classes. If you do so, I would appreciate hearing from you. Chapter and page numbers refer to the textbook: Holt Modern Chemistry (c) 2002 Texas Edition. Note: Movies and animations have been omitted to conserve space on the web server.
