Homework: Study for the test!


TOMORROW we will be in the LMC lab!


Test on Friday

4.12.2012

Today: Students did a jelly bean simulation to determine the number of protons and neutrons in an element's nucleus.  Then they determined the difference between isotopes and an average atom.

Homework: Blue Neutron Worksheet - Due TOMORROW

April 11

Today: Students learned how to find the number of neutrons in an element's nucleus.  They completed questions 1-5 on a blue neutron worksheet.  Students were also informed of extra credit opportunities for this unit. 

Homework: Blue Neutron worksheet - due Friday (Monday for Lang. Camp students)

4.10.2012

Today: Students took a short quiz about Protons and Atomic Number.  Then they used their periodic tables to answer questions and complete a scavenger hunt.  Students also determined what groups (vertical columns) and periods (horizontal rows) are on the periodic table.  


Atomic Number worksheet was due today.


Homework: None


4.09.2012

Today: Students colored periodic tables by element category. i.e. noble gases, halogens, transition metals.  Then they started an Atomic Number worksheet - finding the number of protons in an element.

Homework: Atomic Number Worksheet #1-16.

4.05.2012

Today: Students watched a Brain Pop on Atoms as a review and then took a partner quiz about atoms and their structure.  Then they read about Atomic Models and how they have changed through out history. 

Homework: None

4.04.2012

Today: Students continued working on their MCA science tests.  If they finished the test, they worked on an atom structure review worksheet.  

Homework: NONE
