Abstract In view of the problems existing in the chemistry teaching for related fire protection major, this paper put forward some chemistry teaching strategies. These strategies included choosing teaching contents according to the requirements of fire protection; using case teaching mode; introducing the knowledge of chemical process, assessing and controlling methods of chemical hazards through the properties of typical compounds and their preparation methods; teaching of analytical chemistry through investigation on typical fire accidents; infiltrating ideas of green chemistry and green fire protection; and introducing new advances of chemistry to classroom teaching.
