It's launch day! Gotta blast! Hey All!
We're completing our rockets today and launching tomorrow! If you finish early, feel free to decorate your rocket! What's Up Rock-ET Stars!?
IT'S ROCKET TIME! Today and tomorrow we're going to focus all our energy on our EOY rocket construction. Wednesday and Thursday it's all about "Gotta Blast!" Have fun and enjoy the time we have left together as a community! Hey Rock Stars!
Our last unit final is today. Take your time and think through each choice and question. You got this! We're almost there! To wrap-up the day we'll get a quick introduction to our final rocket project! Have fun and crush it! Scientists will take a chemistry unit final. Hey Rock Stars!
Today we're going to move one step closer to becoming masters of the molecules. We're going to learn to count the number of atoms in a molecule as well as get a brief overview of balancing chemical equations! Let's crush it! Scientists will be able to identify the number of atoms in a molecule as well as balance a chemical equation. Hey All! I just want to give you all a shout out for doing so well yesterday with the sub! She said you were awesome! With that, I also heard there was much confusion about the work. Let's clear that up today in our Community Additions. But before that. . . Here's the early release video of the week! Scientists will be able to identify and draw the number of valence electrons for each atom and combine atoms to form molecules. Hey Rock Stars! Thanks for being so supportive while I'm out today. You have three missions. Follow the buttons and instructions for each below and things will be very simple. If you complete all three missions please work on your glossary! Thanks and see you all Wednesday! -V Mission #1: Rock the PPT and use it as a guide to do the worksheet. Do the practice Lewis Dot diagrams in the PPT on the blank side and then rock the rest with your college teammates. You do not have to take notes. Mission #2: Bonding Basics. This worksheet covers new material but I think you're more than capable of handling it. The sub can diagram some for you as well! Skip the oxidation number column. You've done most of this already! Just make sure there are eight valence electrons shared in the outer shell and you'll be awesome! Mission #3: Chemical Bonding worksheet. Use your periodic tables in your science journals. If you do not have them, go to the Interactions of matter button and click the link to see the periodic table you used as a guide to label yours (from last week). Use your labels for each group and identify if each element is a metal or non-metal. Next, follow the guide at the top of the worksheet to see what type of bond it is. Have fun!
Hey All!
I hope you had an awesome Friday and a great weekend! Today we're going to rock a vaping lesson. The science department volunteered to do this in our classes since it is definitely health/human body related. Vaping is also becoming a problem for people, especially kiddos. I hope you get something out of today that will help you make awesome choices in the future! And yes, your future depends on your choices (as if you didn't know already!). Before that, I would like to know how I did helping you all with energizers during class. Please click the link below to assess me on my commitment to movement. Thanks! -V Hey Guys!
Yesterday was awesome! You all did a great job answering questions, explaining your thinking as well as trying to "think on the fly". Today, you'll be getting background knowledge for an acids/bases lab we'll do next week by reading pages p. 394-401. I have a note catcher for you to guide your reading. Also, using the reading, please add the words and definitions for acid, base and pH into your glossary. This should take you the entire period, however, if you finish, please start skill sheet #15. If you do not complete it, then it is NOT homework. Have a great day and represent yourselves well! Oh, and please turn-in your work in the appropriate bin when done. Thanksl. -Mr. V |
