Students took the Energy Chapter Test (100 pts) after reviewing the Chapter Review and questions from the website. Then, they were given the Work Voc. (56 pts) which was assigned for homework.
Chemical Equations
Students worked on 2 worksheets to learn how to properly balance Chemical Equations. They also reviewed the types of chemical reactions in the worksheets.
Energy
Students took the Energy Voc. Test (26 pts) and completed the Energy Ch. Rev. (50 pts) in preparation for the Energy Chapter Test (100 pts) tomorrow.
Chemical Reactions
Students observed two podcasts on Balancing Chemical Equations. Then we practiced w/three chemical equations from the skeleton equations. We also, finished class with a "Types of Chemical Equations" WS (42 pt) for homework.
Energy
We covered several versions of Energy Transformations, types of potential/kinetic energy changes, and how our body converts energy to conclude the notes on the chapter. Students were given an Energy SNF (16 pts) to prepare for tomorrows Energy Voc. Test. The Energy Chapter Test will be on Friday.
Energy
Today we took notes on the types of potential energy. We then differentiated among the three types of potential energy. Then, we worked 3 examples of calculating mass, height and GPE. Students were given a Gravitational Potential Energy (GPE) Word Problem Worksheet to complete for homework (30 pts). We also took a Bronze grade (10 pts) on bringing the calculator to class.
Counting Atoms
Today, we took notes on how to balance chemical equations, saw a podcast on how to count atoms and completed a "Counting Atoms" Worksheet (75 pts).
Kinetic Energy
Students were able to learn several FORMS of energy and the two major types of energy. We also discussed the different types of energy and how to calculate Kinetic Energy. Class concluded with a "Calculating Kinetic Energy" WPWS (33 pts)
Chemical Equations; Types & Balancing
Students were given the five types of chemical equations w/examples. We then explained how to differentiate among the five types. Students took a short pop-test on Types of Chemical Equations (22 pts) before the end of class. We will begin balancing chemical equations on Monday.
Chemical Reactions
Students continued the notes on types of chemical reactions. We went over the homework on types of skeleton equations.
