Day 60
(Day 60 - Speed & Velocity)
Students were given their new Chapter 5 packet today, and we discussed section 5-1 notes on speed and velocity. We watched a video linked from the flipchart on frames of reference. We watched a www.brainpop.com video on Distance, Rate and Time and took the quiz using student responders. Using the last page of the flipchart, we completed 1a & 1b from worksheet 5-1, and students completed problem #2 on the page, as well. We ended class by discussing the 4-step method for solving word problems, and I used the three examples in the flipchart to demonstrate that method.
No homework was assigned, and the Speed Quiz will be next Tuesday, December 4th.

Day 54
(IWB - Day 54 Ions & Isotopes)
Students had the opportunity to take the periodic table quiz. We discussed what an isotope is and how it helped to determine the average atomic mass of an atom. Following that discussion, we watched a www.brainpop.com video of Isotopes and took the quiz thereafter. It only took about a minute for students to complete worksheet 3-15 on isotopes. We then discussed how ions are created and how that effects their net charge. We watched a www.brainpop.com video on Ions but DID NOT take that quiz. We ended class by having students work on worksheet 3-16. Most students had difficulty with this page, so I went over the first 2-4 samples with them. The bell rang before most students were done, so we will complete the assignment tomorrow.

Day 47
(IWB - Day 47 Counting Atoms)
Today was the first science news article of the 2nd quarter (#10 overall), and so extra credit was given to those that summarized out loud while standing in front of their table. I outlined the requirement for taking the Periodic Table quiz over the next two weeks. We continued section 3-3 notes on coefficients, subscripts and parentheses in a chemical formula. Students completed worksheet 3-7 in their groups and we discussed the answers together. They began worksheet 3-8, but we ran out of time to complete it.
