AGENDA
WHOLE GROUP

NOTE: Due to Holiday celebrations, some class activities may not occur.
For the bell ringer, students listed all the possible ways to bind two sheets of paper together.

We did a teacher demo for hydrogen bonds.

Students then saw the video Atomic Hook -Ups. You can watch the video by clicking the link below.



Students then did the online activity determining bond types. Visit my blog page for December 19/20 (the other one!) for the link!
For an early Christmas present, I'll also include it below: :-)
