Week 5, Day 1




PTT:
FIRST: complete this survey:
__https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/VTQZ73G__


1) Open this document in a new tab: Lab Report Instructions and Rubric
2) In a new tab, go to your Google Drive science folder and make sure it is shared with me
3) Then open your lab report document (Lab: Observing Physical and Chemical Change)
4) If you are not sure whether you received an NHI for this lab report, check PowerSchool.
5) Once you have the two tabs ready (your lab report and the lab report instructions), please wait for me to give further instructions.

Task 1:
We are going to go over the lab report expectations again. Then you will take the time to COMPLETE your lab report in the CORRECT format.

NOTE: If you did have yours completed (no NHI), I should have left comments on your conclusion about how you could improve it. Please scroll through to find these and fix those sections of your conclusion. Once done with those, you can set up your notebook pages for our next lab.

Task 2: Prepare for the Phase Change Lab
1) Turn to p. 26 in your science notebook
2) Record the date
3) Title the page - Lab: Heating Curve of Water
4) Your goal is to be able to answer the key question for the lab
5) Set up your page like is shown below:

Closure:
Consider why we had to spend another day working on our lab reports. What do you think led some people to not completing their lab or not completing it correctly? Respond to the discussion post below with an answer.



Week 5, Day 2





PTT:
1) Open your notebook to p. 26.
2) Check to see if it is set up for today's lab. If it is not, scroll up to task 2 for yesterday's lesson and set up the page.
3) If you do have the page set up, check to see if you have completed the hypothesis. It should be in the if...then...because format and answer the problem question.

Task 1:
1) Open this link in another tab
2) Make a COPY
3) Put that copy in your science folder on Google Drive
4) Type in your name, the period, and the date
5) Scroll down and read over the directions.

Task 2: Complete lab
1) Collect materials (Beaker, test tube, temperature probe, ice, logger pro hardware) and begin lab set up and data collection.
2) While you are collecting your Data, as time permits watch and read over the resources linked under "Week 4, Day 1" here.

Closure:
If you finish your lab, clean up the lab area.
Begin reading the application questions and answering the questions.




Week 5, Day 3





PTT:
Complete the probe worksheet "Freezing Ice"/"Turning the Dial"

Task 1:
1) Open this link in another tab
2) Make a COPY
3) Put that copy in your science folder on Google Drive
4) Type in your name, the period, and the date
5) If you are the person who used their computer for the lab, email the logger pro file and the screenshot of the graph to your group members. They will need these for their lab report too.
6) Type your hypothesis into the space left for hypothesis

Task 2:
1) Let's discuss
- What did you notice when our ice was melting?
- What did the temperature do?
- How does this relate to your hypothesis?

2) We didn't completely get through the lab, as our water didn't boil and evaporate. Here is a graph below that Mr. Austen collected when doing this lab last year.
11 - Screenshot great graph.png
What do you notice about the graph?
Where was the ice melting?
Where was the liquid water boiling/evaporating?
How do you know?

3) We are going to draw and label a heating curve on p. 27 in our science notebook. Write the date and title the page - Heating Curve of Water Discussion

Here is a simulation of a heating curve with a description of what happens at each line on the graph:
http://www.alchemical.org/thermo/other/heatingcurve.swf

4) Write a summary that explains what the heating curve of water shows us.

5) Draw a line below your summary to leave room for the next task

Review video if needed:


Task 3:
1) Write the title: Error Discussion
2) Complete the chart as drawn on the board as we discuss errors that may have happened in the lab

Closure/Homework:
Work on writing lab report



Week 5, day 4





PTT:
1) Record homework: lab report due Wednesday, quiz on phase changes for P5-6 on Thursday and P3 on next Friday
2) Core Races - labeling heating and cooling curve graphs

Task 1:
Perform your skit

Task 2:
1) Outline conclusion - we will review the parts required in a conclusion and create an outline with sentence starters to help structure the lab report
For period 5, remind me to talk about error since I don't think we got to that
2) If need review and clarification on phase changes and the heating curve of water, watch this Brainpop video
(http://www.brainpop.com/science/matterandchemistry/matterchangingstates/)
3) Spend 10 minutes writing conclusion -
NOTE: there will be a phase change and conclusion writing extra help session on Tuesday after school...I HIGHLY suggest you come if you are having trouble understanding the content and if you want help editing your lab report

Task 3:
1) Turn to page 28 in your science notebook
2) Title it: Introduction to Atoms
3) Record the date
4) Record the goal - Goal: I can explain why atoms are called "the building blocks of matter."
5) Complete the notes as you watch the first two video below. Your notes will be completed in a 2-column note-taker that I'll pass out in class and attached below for anyone who is absent.

Closure:
Explain to your seat partner what an atom is. How do atoms connect to the phases of matter?
