Wednesday

I can understand what physical properties of matter are and be able to list several examples by watching a PowerPoint.

P.PM.07.24 Describe Examples of Physical and Chemical properties of elements and compounds (boiling point, density, color, conductivity, reactivity)

Language Objective
I can write to summarize physical properties of matter by taking Cornell Notes while observing a slide show and several demonstrations.

HOMEWORK – None

Monday

Content Objective
I can apply the process of measuring density by predicting the order of several known substances from least dense to most dense and then measure them a density measurement lab.

S.IP.07.13 Use tools and equipment (spring scales, stop watches, meter sticks and tapes, models, hand lens, thermometers, sieves, microscopes, hotplates, pH meters) appropriate to scientific investigations.
S.IP.07.14 Use metric measurement devices in an investigation.

Language Objective
I can write to record mass and volume measurements and density calculations  on the lab data sheet while working on the density measurement lab.

HOMEWORK – None

Dodgeball Friday

Content Objective
