The 2007 National Chemistry Week (NCW) is scheduled for Oct. 21-27, and will be the 20th anniversary of the event. As we get closer to the date, the American Chemical Society (ACS) will be providing stories about the theme –– “The Many Faces of Chemistry”–– and information about activities and games relating to NCW. The week will center on the various jobs in chemistry and people who work in the field. Among the activities will be career fairs sponsored by ACS Local Sections across the country.
Let us know if there is anything in particular you are looking for, including photos or other art, and in the meantime, check out the following sites for neat kids’ activities:
