ESSENTIAL QUESTION: How does matter change?

RELEVANCE: Is being pregnant a physical or a chemical change?


NGSSS: SC.912.P.8.2; MAFS.912.N-Q.1.1; LAFS.910.WHST.1

LEARNING OBJECTIVES:  Students will be able to:
-differentiate between physical and chemical properties of matter.
-identify physical and chemical changes in matter

BELL RINGER:  
Write for two minutes about all the changes your body underwent when you were/are pregnant.

VOCABULARY: physical property, chemical property, physical change, chemical change, substance

HOME LEARNING: HL 5

Students did a sustained silent writing for two minutes on the changes their bodies are going through/went through during pregnancy as their bell ringer.

Research plans were reviewed. Remember, you MUST do the background research so that we can formulate our hypothesis.

Home learning 5 was distributed. You can write darkly on your copy, and I will make a copy for you. You can find HL 5 below.

This is HL 5. Complete as directed.


We then completed the CER for the density lab.

Students took notes on how matter changes as we viewed a Study Jams video. You can find the note page below. Remember, you are to draw or write an example for each term.
Obviously, you only need one of these. Complete for your notes.




You can find the link for the Study Jams video here: Physical and Chemical Changes of Matter. How much did you learn? Try testing yourself by clicking on the Test Yourself link on the page.

Students began a Gizmo challenge to determine how solubility is related to temperature. Use the Gizmo username and password I supplied you and complete the handout, including the CER. You can find the handout below.
