ESSENTIAL QUESTION: What are the types of chemical reactions?

RELEVANCE: Some things are predictable!

NGSSS: SC.912.P.8.7; MAFS.912.N-Q.1.1; LAFS.910.WHST.1

LEARNING OBJECTIVES:  Students will be able to:
-explain the meaning of a chemical equation.
-categorize the different types of reactions by looking at basic patterns patterns of chemical equations.
-determine correct counting of atoms and correct placement of coefficients when balancing equations.
-apply the law of conservation of mass in balancing chemical reactions.
-continue quarterly project how does pH affect plant growth.

BELL RINGER: Types of Chemical Reactions Pre-Test via Kahoot.it/chemical reaction Kahoot

VOCABULARY: aqueous, chemical equation, coefficient, combustion reaction, decomposition reaction, double replacement (displacement) reaction, Law of Conservation of Matter, precipitate, product, reactant, reaction, single replacement (displacement) reaction, synthesis reaction, yield

HOME LEARNING: NA

AGENDA
WHOLE GROUP

We reviewed the correlations and tie-ins to the focus calendar.

The bell ringer was to compete a Kahoot pretest on types of reactions form some and to work on a Frayer model vocabulary word map for other classes.

WE then watched a short video to introduce the topic of types of chemical reactions. You can watch the video below.

Watch the video to learn about four of the types of chemical reactions.


Students then took notes on describing chemical reactions. You can watch the slide presentation in movie form below.

This is the video form of the notes. Record all that is in red.


You may prefer to see the slide show instead. Click the link Describing Chemical Reactions to see the actual slides.

Students visited the garden to gather data.

Students then received the explanation for the biology report on cellular organelles. You can find the explanation below. Reports are due in class by February 5.

Use these handouts to write your Children's book on Types of Chemical Reactions.


SMALL GROUP/INDEPENDENT PRACTICE/DI
Students who compete work early should go to 
70% or higher on pre-test Khan’s academy chemical reactions
less than 70% on pre-test- teacher intervention

HOTS: 
-Which types of bonds do you think would be the most exothermic? Endothermic? Why?
-Could a chemical reaction be more than one type at the same time? Why or why not?


EXIT STRATEGY: Three things I learned: two things I found interesting: I question I still have.
