ESSENTIAL QUESTION: How are electrons arranged in atoms:
LEARNING TARGET: Write the correct electron configuration for various elements on the periodic table.
BENCHMARKS: SC.912.P.8.5
LEARNING OBJECTIVES: Students will be able to:
-apply basic rules of electron configuration to determine the valence electrons of an atom and their chemical and physical properties.
-explain that when electrons transition to higher energy levels they absorb energy, and emit energy when they transition to lower energy levels.
-QSBA1 make up/debrief/correction
BELL RINGER - NA.
VOCABULARY: energy, ground state, excited state, emission spectra, photon, Planck’s constant, quantum, quantum mechanical model, electron configuration, atomic orbital, energy levels, Aufbau Principle, Pauli Exclusion Principle, Hund’ Rule
HOME LEARNING: HL4: Electron Configuration
AGENDA
WHOLE GROUP
We did not have a bell ringer. Students received home learning 3 and we reviewed the principles behind it.
Students who needed to make up QSBA1 did so. Other students corrected their exams.
Students then watched the video I Heart Electron Configuration and sang along with the words below. You can find the video and the words below.
