Week 4: Lesson Plans September 4th - 7th

Week 4:  Lesson Plans September  4th - 7th

Chemistry I:  This week will focus on using lab to learn about physical and chemical properties.  Our first unit test on lab equipment, types of chemistry, and the scientific method will assess our chapter one knowledge and we will begin chapter two by learning the elements.

Monday:  LABOR DAY

Tuesday: 

1.  Grade Getting to Know Chapter One

2.  Physical and Chemical Properties Lab - finish pre-lab

3.  answer pre-lab questions

4.  set up turnitin account

5.  Bring books tomorrow

Weds: 

1.  Unit I test

2.  set up turnitin account

3.  answer pre-lab questions

4.  Pick up getting to know Chapter 2 - due next Thursday (9/13)

Thursday:  Day One of Physical and Chemical Properties Lab - properties

Friday: 

1.  Day Two of Physical and Chemical Properties Lab - changes

2.  Work on Lab reports due next Friday 9/14

3.  Set up turnitin.com account if haven't

4.  Day Three of Lab will be Monday

Advanced Chemistry:  This week we will use the Copper (II) Sulfate Lab to apply our knowledge of percent composition, formulae, and stoichiometry.  Students will be assessed in their knowledge of balancing equations and simple stoichiometry, then introduced to the concept of calculating limiting reactants.  An open inquiry lab will be designed by students to create a bottle rocket using baking soda and vinegar.

Monday:  LABOR DAY

Tuesday: 

1.  Limiting Reactant notes

3.  Finish notes if needed thru Stoich

4.  Discuss bottle rocket lab

AP Chemistry:  We will finish the review for ch 8 - bonding - using another simple lab where students look at the behavior of food coloring in water, milk, and cream to notice and explain intermolecular forces.  We will also begin our study of equilibrium and learn how to determine if a reaction is spontaneous and will shift forward or not.  Chemistry Club t-shirts using ultraviolet developing will be made so we have something to wear on our visits to the elementary and junior high schools.
