Lesson Plans for August 25-29

Week Three Lesson Plans for August 25^th – 29^th

Chemistry I – This week we will be getting into the lab to cut, fire polish, and bend glass tubing.  This allows me to identify the pyromaniacs and deviants so I am aware of their presence in the lab.  It is fine to be fascinated by fire – I just want to be aware.  I certainly love fire myself.  We will also be reviewing unit I to prepare for the test on Friday.  Students will learn and identify lab equipment for the test as well.

Advanced Chemistry Lesson Plans Aug 25^th – 29^th :  This week will focus on applying our review of balancing and calculating formula mass, percent composition, and empirical and molecular formulae

using a lab on finding the percent of oxygen in potassium chlorate.  Then we will apply our knowledge of molarity to a molarity lab leading into our stoichiometry review and application.

Monday:

1. Balancing Quiz back
2. Lab Safety Test back
3. Grade Formula Masses
4. Quiz Tuesday over formula mass

Tuesday:

1. Formula Weights Quiz
2. Quiz over formula masses tomorrow
3. Molarity notes
4. Potassium Chlorate Pre-Lab

Wednesday:

1. Formula Masses Quiz
2. Part I of lab
3. Lab reports due next Weds Sept 3^rd with turnitin by midnight
4. Molarity Pre-Lab

Thursday:

1. Finish Part II of Potassium Chlorate Lab
2. Discuss lab – turnitin on computers

Friday:

1. Finish Potassium Chlorate Lab
2. Start Molarity Lab

AP Chemistry Lesson Plans Aug 25^th – 29^th :  This week will focus on our discussion on bonding and forces and how to predict what types are present in molecules.  We will finish our inquiry lab determining if food coloring is a polar covalent, non-polar covalent, or an ionic solution.  Daily quizzes will be given each day to review the ions assigned over the summer as well as the content of the review chapters 1, 2, and 3.  Our study of organic chemistry will continue from last year as we add to hydrocarbons and halocarbons, applying the bonding and forces discussion to the properties of such organic molecules as alcohols and ethers.
