Today was a short day, which we spent wrapping up the Elaborate section of Chapter 2.
In-Class Work: Reflect and Connect #2
Homework: Finishing all remaining Reflect and Connect questions.
Learning Target: Atoms interact with each other. Atomic interactions sometimes lead to changes in physical properties, chemical properties, or both.
Upcoming: Chapter 2 assessments (the “Evaluate” section)
Today we examined the relationships between pressure, density and temperature
In-Class Work: Part III: Phases of Matter, Stop & Think #1-4
Homework: None
Learning Target: Atoms interact with each other. Atomic interactions sometimes lead to changes in physical properties, chemical properties, or both.
Upcoming: Student-Led Conferences
Today looked in to microscopic (tiny) nature of solid, liquid and gaseous candle wax.
In-Class Work: Part III: Phases of Matter, Process and Procedure #1-5
Homework: None
Learning Target: Atoms interact with each other. Atomic interactions sometimes lead to changes in physical properties, chemical properties, or both.
Upcoming: Learning how pressure, temperature and density are related.
Today we spent more time working with molecular models. Mass can’t be created or destroyed in a chemical reaction, so we learned that sometimes you need more than one molecule of each compound.
In-Class Work: Part II: Candle Combusition, Stop & Think #1-4
Homework: None
Learning Target: Atoms interact with each other. Atomic interactions sometimes lead to changes in physical properties, chemical properties, or both.
Upcoming: Learning how pressure, temperature and density are related.
Today was learned about chemical reactings, specifically combustion. We got to play with molecular molecules to make the reactants and products for the combustion of methane.
In-Class Work: Part II: Candle Combusition, Process and Procedure #1-5
Homework: Determine if methane, oxygen, carbon dioxide, and water are each reactants or products in a combustion reation.
Learning Target: Atoms interact with each other. Atomic interactions sometimes lead to changes in physical properties, chemical properties, or both.
Upcoming: Conservation of matter using model kits
