Week of April 27th

Hope all is well!  We will continue using google classroom to access and turning in assignments, however, google meet is cancelled.  Instead, we will use Big Blue Button (BBB)  on ilearn for video meetings.  

Big Blue Button BBB on ilearn for video conferencing on assigned days. Enrollement codes:

1. 2nd hour: yqraar
2. 3rd hour:3vqj6r
3. 4th hour: cqenbv
4. 5th hour: rquqtr
5. 6th hour: 6ctfpe

you will have 3 items on the agenda for this week:  Article of the week, writing on glazing components, and the Khan Academy review.

After checking the research part on glazing components, I realized that most students are struggling with question #3, to identify the chemical/compound that determines the colorant of the glaze.    For this reason, I created a discussion question on google classroom to help each other in this part and we will discuss it during video conferencing this week.  

Article of the week: Periodic Trends  https://simple.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atomic_radius

Questions to answer in your notes( google classroom): How does this short article relate to the reading from last week? What other questions do you have about what you are learning from these articles?

Visualization or drawings to put in your notes: Make a sketch or drawing to describe the pattern or trend of how atomic radius changes related to where the element is on the periodic table. (To help, check out examples of professionals doing these types of visualizations: Compound Chem, ThoughtCo, Online Textbook. Please do not copy, the point of this exercise is to do the work yourself. Email me if you have questions or issues).

Ceramics Chemistry unit:  Complete discussion question 2 on google classroom 

Khan Academy: ongoing review on atoms, ions, compounds, and naming. It was sent out last week to your email (Due  May 1st)
