Week 14 Lesson Plans for November 16th – 20th

 

Week 14 Lesson Plans for November 16th – 20th

Chemistry I - Assessment for the Measurement Unit will be a two part test combining dimensional analysis with significant figures, metric system, specific heat, scientific notation, and rounding rules - with everything in between!  The atom is explored in chapter 3.  Students were asked to draw an iron atom, labeling where the protons, electrons, neutrons, and nucleus are located as well as a way to key them out in the drawing.  This activity inspires the students to learn more about these subatomic particles and shows them that it has been a while since they last visited the atom.  The concept of the mol (an amount of substance) will be introduced in the mol lab.  Students will learn about the history of the atom.
