ESSENTIAL QUESTION: What is the electromagnetic spectrum?
NGSSS: SC.912.P.10.18
BENCHMARK(S):
-Explore the theory of electromagnetism by comparing and contrasting the different parts of the electromagnetic spectrum in terms of wavelength, frequency, and energy, and relate them to phenomena and applications.
LEARNING OBJECTIVES: Students will be able to:
-explore the theory of electromagnetism by comparing and contrasting the different parts of the electromagnetic spectrum.
-describe the electromagnetic spectrum in terms of frequency, wavelength and energy.
BELL RINGER: Complete the Wavestown handout by listing all the examples in the town that represent each of the wave types of the electromagnetic spectrum. The handout tells you how many examples of each there are. There are multiple uses for the observatory.
VOCABULARY: wavelength, amplitude, frequency, hertz, crest, trough
HOME LEARNING: work on your science fair paper/project AND HL 5 Wave Speed
INFORMATION PRESENTED IN CLASS:
After completing the Wavestown handout, we practiced solving wavelength problems, which is the home learning assignment, as listed below. Be sure to write the answers to all the questions on your handout to be placed in your notebook. Write the answers, and show your work on a separate sheet of paper to submit for a grade. The home learning sheet is listed below.
Students then participated in the Pass It On Activity. Students received a sticky with one of the vocabulary words listed at the top. Students wrote one fact on the sticky and passed it on to another students so that student could write a fact. Each student should have written comments on a minimum of three stickies.
We added pages to our interactive notebook A contact information sheet was placed in the back inside cover. Pages a through e were labeled in the back of the notebook. A new table of contents page was added to show that these new pages are indeed.
Handouts explaining in detain how to write the Cornell notes questions were distributed and should be used to help students increase achievement. These were placed on pages 5 and 6 of the notebook.
Data chats were began, and students worked individually (Khan's Academy videos-see the list you were given) or CK-12.org assignments as their classmates were called up for the data chap.
