<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">Grade Level Span: Grade 9-Diploma

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">Students describe the structure, behavior, and interactions of matter at the atomic level and the relationship between matter and energy.

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">Performance indicators: a,b,c,d

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;"> **Rationale:** Students will develop an understanding of the process of chemical bonding between atoms and molecules, which is fundamental to the matter and energy unit.

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;"> **__Assessments__**

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;"> **__Formative (Assessment for Learning)__**

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;"> **Section I – checking for understanding during instruction**

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">After days 2, 3, and 4, I will check for understanding through the use of clicker questions. I will develop a short five question survey on the material that was covered that day. Each student will put in their answer using their clickers. I will use the data from the clicker questions to help direct instruction the following days.

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;"> **Section II – timely feedback for products (self, peer, teacher)**

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">A rubric will be used by the individual students and myself to assess the project. After completing their Prezi, students will fill out a rubric telling me how they think they performed. I will assess students during the presentations. Peer feedback will come in the form of the online Google Doc that asks for input on the project as a whole.

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;"> **__Summative (Assessment of Learning):__**

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">Students will create a Prezi at the end of the lesson that shows their learning of the various chemical reactions that can take place and why reactions take place. Students will be encouraged to incorporate images, videos, and text to help convey their information. The Prezi should be between 4-5 minutes long to help thoroughly explain all the chemical reactions. To make sure students do not have the same reactions, I will assign specific molecules that must be included and given to them when they receive the rubric to the Prezi project. Students will present their Prezi in small groups on day 6 of the lesson.

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;"> **__Integration__**

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;"> **Technology:**

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">I will have my students create a Prezi in a Type II way. Students will also use clickers to answer questions.

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;"> **Content Areas:**

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">Current events/history: Students will delve into current and historical events to help reinforce topics that were covered in class.

<span style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">Biology: Students will learn about biological processes involved in calories and energy.

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;"> **__Groupings__**

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;"> **Section I - Graphic Organizer & Cooperative Learning used during instruction**

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">The KWL Chart will be used on day 4 to help organize their information before developing the Prezi project. This graphic organizer allows students to start with a topic and build on it. Numbered heads together will be used on day 2, so students can work together to help each other understand the lesson on energy and reactions. I will be walking around during the cooperative learning to see if there are any areas that the students had trouble with.

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;"> **Section II – Groups and Roles for Product**

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">The product is not a group project. Each student will play all of the following roles:

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">Recorder: The recorder will take notes during class discussion, KWL chart.

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">Facilitator: The facilitators main role in the Prezi project will be to direct questions at the teacher. Another role of the facilitator is to keep their partner on task.

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">Designer: The designer will develop the look of the Prezi and any visuals included.

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">Time keeper: The time keeper will help manage time for the group. The time keeper will also make sure to take down due dates and remember to announce them to their partner.

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">Runner: The runner will be moving the most. They will gather necessary tools, utensils, paper, resources, or anything the group may need.

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;"> **__Differentiated Instruction__**

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;"> **__MI Strategies__**

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">Verbal-Linguistic: Students will present their chemical reaction Prezi to the class.

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">Logical/Mathematical: Working with reactions requires many calculations. Two such calculations are equilibrium and entropy.

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">Visual/Spatial: The Prezi will be a visual representation of the various reactions that can take place in a molecule.

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">Bodily/Kinesthetic: Students will be moving around during labs that involve chemical reactions.

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">Musical/Rhythmic: Students will be required to incorporate audio into their Prezi

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">Intrapersonal: Students will create their own KWL Chart while planning their Prezi.

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">Interpersonal: Students will talk about chemical reactions in groups during numbered heads together.

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">Naturalist: Students will learn about chemical reactions that occur in nature, such as cellular respiration and photosynthesis. I will be sure to inform them that these are necessary to most human, animal, and plant life.

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;"> **__Modifications/Accommodations__**

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;"> **//From IEP’s ( Individual Education Plan), 504’s, ELLIDEP (English Language Learning Instructional Delivery Education Plan)//**

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">My classroom will have a major focus on respecting others and treating them that way constantly. I will review student’s IEP, 504 or ELLIDEP and make appropriate modifications and accommodations. My classroom is focused on personal growth and making sure that the student can understand the information required of them. I will provide more time, alternative assignments (if necessary), or supplement assignments. These will all be dependent on whether or not it helps the individual student's learning.

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;"> **Plan for accommodating absent students:**

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">Students who cannot attend class can access class notes, Prezi tutorial, and any assignments that were missed on my class Wikipage. Students will need to get in touch with me regarding their Prezi project. Depending on the day, students may need to create a Google doc to share information. If a student misses an extended period of time then they can complete any assignments on their own after meeting with me.

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;"> **__Extensions__**

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;"> **Type II technology:**

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">I will have my students create Prezi presentation about chemical reactions. Students can incorporate videos and use other embedded objects to make this type II.

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;"> **Gifted Students:**

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">One way I could challenge gifted students could be to have them make more connections to the real world in their Prezi and ask them to incorporate more involved reactions.

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;"> **__Materials, Resources and Technology__**

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;"> **__PART II:__**

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;"> **__Teaching and Learning Sequence__ (Describe the teaching and learning process using all of the information from part I of the lesson plan)** //Take all the components and synthesize into a script of what you are doing as the teacher and what the learners are doing throughout the lesson. Need to use all the WHERETO’s. (3-5 pages)//

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">My classroom will be arranged in centers to not only aid partner collaboration, but also help with group bonding throughout the year. I will be sure that the room has lab stations that are set up for the lesson, since they will be used frequently. A simple set of classroom rules will be in place that are also enforceable. Complicated rules can backfire on the teacher. The fifth lesson will begin with a short review of molecules and their properties. The hook will follow my short review, which is a reaction involving nitrogen monoxide and oxygen. The reaction should get students excited to learn about chemical reactions. Students will then discuss the reaction in their table groups. After the hook, I will perform an introductory lecture on energy and chemical reactions. I will end day 1 by discussing a topic in the news that shows the importance of chemical reactions. Day 2 will be spent discussing what calories are and going further in depth into chemical reactions and what energy is. The last part of day 2 will be spent in numbered heads together and clickers to help not only reinforce understanding, but also check for understanding. I will begin day 3 with an acid-base reaction that leads into a lecture on acid-base reactions. I will be teaching while the students take notes and contribute in discussion when possible. I will break up the lesson with an acid-base titration experiment. I would end the day with a series of clicker questions. Day 4 begins with a lesson on reaction rates in chemical reactions. I would spend a large portion of the class going into this. I would use clickers once again after this topic and then move to the Prezi presentation. I will hand out the rubric and go through it with students. I will end the day by breaking students up into small groups (pairs preferably) and they would begin filling out a KWL chart. Day 5 will be spent on developing Prezi presentations. I will begin by answering any questions that students might have, then I would help throughout the process, as needed. The end of the day would be used to gauge how successful the groups feel with their project (thumbs up, down, or in the middle). Day 6 will end the lesson. Students will present their Prezis and give feedback on the project as a whole. I will then end the day with an engaging article from the news involving chemical reactions again.

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;"> __My Agenda__

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;"> **Day 1:**

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;"> **8:00-** I will begin the lesson with a short 20 minute review on molecules and the properties they exhibit. I will be asking students questions and looking for them to lead in a discussion. I will be at the front of the classroom trying to help stimulate the conversation when necessary.

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;"> **8:20-** I will then transition to the hook in which the students will see an interesting chemical reaction. The specific reaction involves filling a large Erlenmeyer flask with nitrogen monoxide and a pH indicator. When the flask is stoppered the solution will appear clear, but when open the color of the liquid will change to purple. I want to lead this into a discussion about what could be causing this change in color.


 * <span style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">8:30- **<span style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">After the hook I will move right into a lesson on energy changes, chemical reactions, and how these two things are related. This part of the lesson will consist of me lecturing at the front of the room and the students taking notes. I will try to engage discussion when topics connect directly to previously learned material or when material can be applied to a different subject area.

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;"> **9:15-** I will end the day by talking about a current event in the news that connects to chemical reactions. There are always stories in the news, so this will not be difficult. I want to use this as a way for students to feel that the material connects outside of the class.

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;"> **Day 2:**

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;"> **8:00-** I would begin class with a quick discussion on what calories are in food. Calories are a measure of energy. I would be at the front of the room eating something while I asked them for input. I want this to be a short hook for day 2.

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;"> **8:05-** The hook would transition into a continuation of the lesson on energy and chemical reactions. The material can be difficult to grasp, so I would want to have plenty of time for discussion to enhance the activities/hooks in class.

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;"> **8:50-** I would have students break off into numbered heads together to help build off of each other’s learning.

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;"> **9:05-** I would use time towards the end of the day to check students’ understanding on the energy/chemical reaction lesson. I want to create questions that would be answered using clickers. I would use any areas of difficulty and address them on day 3.

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;"> **Day 3:**

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;"> **8:00-** Students would enter the classroom and would immediately witness an acid-base reaction take place. I would go right into my discussion as to the importance of acid-base reactions. This would be a formal lecture, students taking notes and myself lecturing.


 * <span style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">8:50- **<span style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">I would break up the day by showing what an acid titration is. The students would be able to see an application of their learning.


 * <span style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">9:05- **<span style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">The end of the day would be used to check for understanding with the use of clicker questions. I would use this to see if any further instruction was needed.

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;"> **Day 4:**

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;"> **8:00-** I would begin day 4 by going right into the lesson on reaction rates. The lesson builds off of learning from the previous few days and would require a lot of preparation on my part to make sure students got all the information from me.


 * <span style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">8:50- **<span style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">Clickers would be used to check student understanding after the lecture and I would decide whether or not some of the topics needed to be covered again.


 * <span style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">8:55- **<span style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">The Prezi presentation rubrics would be handed out, so students could understand what was expected of them. I would go through it with them and ask if there are any questions.


 * <span style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">9:10- **<span style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">I would end the day by pairing students off and having them begin the KWL chart for their Prezi. The KWL chart will be used to help students develop their Prezis.

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;"> **Day 5:**

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;"> **8:00-** I would use the first part of class to answer any questions that students might have.


 * <span style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">8:05- **<span style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">The remainder of the day would be dedicated to students working together in their groups, creating their Prezi presentations. I would be making my way around the classroom to give help to any groups that needed it.


 * <span style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">9:15- **<span style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">To end the day I would want to see how students felt about their Prezis with a show of thumbs (good, okay, badly).

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;"> **Day 6:**

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;"> **8:00-** We will begin the end of the last class by having students present their Prezis. I will be assessing their work with a rubric.

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;"> **9:05-** After the presentations, students will fill out a project evaluation on Google Docs. I would use this information to make improvements to the project experience.


 * <span style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">9:15- **<span style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">I would end the lesson by mentioning another significant event in the news that has to do with their learning over the lesson.

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">Students will understand that a molecule has properties that allows one to make predictions about chemical reactions it can be involved in. Chemical reactions are an essential part of life processes. Life would not exist if there were no reactions between atoms and molecules. Reactions are also really fun to watch. //Students describe how the number and arrangement of atoms in a molecule determine a molecule's properties, including the types of bonds it makes with other molecules and its mass, and apply this to predictions about chemical reactions.//

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">To engage my students I will show them a reaction of nitrogen monoxide with the air. This should help them become interested in what chemical reactions are.

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;"> **Where, Why, What, Hook, Tailors: (**linguistic, logical, visual, musical, interpersonal, intrapersonal)

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">Students will know definitions of atom, electron, neutron, proton, energy level, element, orbitals, charge, cation, anion, molecule, bonds, covalent bond, ionic bond, hydrogen bond, reaction rate, energy, acid, base, endothermic, exothermic, reaction,alcohol, density, dilution, atomic mass, atomic number, atomic weight, mass, mole, cathode, anode, oxidation, heat, pH, octet rule, solute, solvent, saturated, buffer, half-life, and isotopes. They will also know the important molecules like: molecular oxygen, water, sodium chloride, potassium nitrate, glucose, carbon dioxide, hydrogen chloride, sodium hydroxide, ammonia, ethanol, and molecular nitrogen. Students will lastly be familiar with Democritus, John Dalton, Dmitri Mendelev, Marie Curie, Amedeo Avogadro, Sir William Ramsay, Le Chatelier, and Sir Issac Newton. (see content notes)

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">Students will use an KWL Chart to map out how they will organize their Prezi presentation. <span style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">Students will use numbered heads together to collaborate with teammates to further their understanding of reactions.

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">Students will participate in clicker questions on days 2, 3, and 4 to help me understand where the class is as a whole. I will then go into further detail, as needed.

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">Using a rubric, students will self-assess their work. Using the same rubric, students will be given teacher feedback so that students can revise their work.

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;"> **Equip, Explore, Rethink, Revise, Tailors:** //(linguistic, logical, visual, musical, kinisthetic, interpersonal, intrapersonal, naturalist)//

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">Students will show their understanding through formative assessment and a summative assessment at the end of the lesson. Each students will take on all roles in the summative assignment. At the end of the summative project, students will be asked to assess themselves using an online questionnaire about the project. The questionnaire helps me better understand what worked, what did not work in the project, and what I can do to improve the project. This informal feedback should help promote a healthy classroom atmosphere.

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;"> **Explore, Experience, Revise, Refine, Tailors:** //(linguistic, logical, visual, interpersonal, intrapersonal)//

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">Students will self-evaluate themselves after the Prezi project on a rubric and in an online survey. The rubric should help guide the student through the process and the survey will give me information as to what the student thought was useful and how I could approach the project differently. All of these will be met with timely feedback. The evaluation is used to help build the student up from one lesson to the next. All evaluated work can be reassessed in some way, so the student can develop a better understanding.

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;"> **Evaluate, Tailors:** (linguistic//, logical, intrapersonal)//

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;"> **__Content Notes__**

<span style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">Students will know definitions of chemistry, atom, electron, neutron, proton, energy level, element, orbitals, charge, cation, anion, molecule, bonds, covalent bond, ionic bond, hydrogen bond, reaction rate, energy, acid, base, endothermic, exothermic, reaction, <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">alcohol, density, dilution, atomic mass, atomic number, atomic weight, mass, mole, cathode, anode, oxidation, heat, pH, octet rule, solute, solvent, saturated, buffer, half-life, and isotopes.

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">chemistry: The branch of physical science that studies both matter and energy and the interaction between the two.

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">atom: Atoms are the most basic form of matter and the building blocks of everything. They are composed of three different particles: protons, neutrons, and electrons. Each atom has a nucleus that can contain protons and neutrons, and an electron cloud surrounding the nucleus. These basic building blocks can bond together to form molecules.

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">electron: Electrons are negatively charged particles found in atoms. The mass of an electron is 1000 times lighter than that of a proton. The bonding between atoms occurs when there is a sharing or transfer of electrons.

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">neutron: Neutrons are particles located in the nucleus of an atom that have no charge. These particles are the larges of the subatomic particles and are reason that isotopes exist. The only element that does not have neutrons in its nucleus is hydrogen (one electron and one proton).

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">isotope: Isotopes are variants of a chemical element and are determined by a difference in the number of neutrons from the elemental form of the particular atom.

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">proton: Protons are positively charged particles found in the nucleus of an atom. The proton is the second largest of the subatomic particles and together with the electrons, determines the net charge of an atom.

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">energy level: Energy levels refer to the orbitals surrounding the nucleus of an atom. In order for an electron to "jump" to a higher orbital, an external energy source is necessary. When the jump occurs, the electron is moving to a higher energy level can then be released.

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">element: A chemical element is a basic chemical substance, usually synonymous with atoms. Elements are all placed on the periodic table of elements. Each element has a specific chemical symbol, atomic mass, atomic number, and atomic weight.

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">orbitals: Orbitals represent paths that are followed by electrons around the nucleus. Orbitals can be in the form of either s, p, d, or f. Each type of orbital has a distinct shape and number of electrons that can occupy that space.

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">net charge: A net charge of an atom is determined by counting the number of protons and subtracting the number of electrons from that. If the number is positive then the atom is positively charged and is known as a cation. If the number is negative then the atom is negatively charged and is known as an anion. If the difference in the number of protons and electrons is zero then there is no net charge. Net charges are directly responsible for ionic bonding. Molecules can also have partially charged areas depending on how electrons are shared covalently.

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">cation: Cations are atoms with a net positive charge (meaning there are more protons than electrons).

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">anion: Anions are atoms with a net negative charge (meaning there are more electrons than protons).

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">molecule: Molecules are forms of matter that are composed of atoms. The composition of a molecule can be that of one type of atom (element) or numerous. A molecule is formed when atoms bond together by covalent bonds, hydrogen bonds, or ionic bonds. Molecules can exist in any of the four states of matter.

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">atomic mass: The atomic mass is defined as the total number of protons, neutrons, and electrons in an atom. On many periodic tables the atomic mass for an element is noted. Any atoms that stray from the atomic mass as noted on the periodic table is known as an isotope.

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">atomic number: The atomic number is how many protons are located in the nucleus of a particular atom. This also means that the atomic number gives the charge for the nucleus.

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">atomic weight: The atomic weight of an atom is the total number of protons and neutrons.

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">mass:Mass is a measurement for the amount of matter within an object. The unit of mass is usually mg, g, or kg.

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">octet rule: The octet rule is only used for elements with an atomic number below twenty. The rule says that atoms will tend to want eight electrons in their valence electron orbital. If they do not have eight then they will usually interact with other atoms to have a valency of eight.

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">half-life: the amount of time it takes for a substance to reduce its mass by half.

<span style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">isotope: a single element with a varying number of neutrons, but the same number of electrons and protons. The isotopes have different properties.

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">Students will be familiar with Democritus, John Dalton, Sir William Ramsay, and Sir Isaac Newton.

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;"> //Democritus: Democritus was a Greek philosopher who lived approximately from 460 BCE to 370 BCE. He was one of the first people to ever suggest that all matter was made of up small, indivisible parts. He called these elements "atomos", or indivisble, which we have since derived the word atoms from.//

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;"> //John Dalton: John Dalton was a chemist/physicist who lived from 1766 to 1844. During this time he made considerable contributions to atomic theory. Dalton's atomic theory has five points://


 * 1) <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">1. <span style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">Elements are made of extremely small particles called atoms.
 * 2) <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">2. <span style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">Atoms of a given element are identical in size, mass, and other properties; atoms of different elements differ in size, mass, and other properties.
 * 3) <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">3. <span style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">Atoms cannot be subdivided, created, or destroyed.
 * 4) <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">4. <span style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">Atoms of different elements combine in simple whole-number ratios to form chemical compounds.
 * 5) <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">5. <span style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">In chemical reactions, atoms are combined, separated, or rearranged.

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">These points still hold true today in terms of chemical properties. Atoms can be subdivided, created, or destroyed, but that begins to filter into nuclear properties.

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;"> //Sir William Ramsay: Sir William Ramsay was a Scottish chemist who lived from 1852 to 1916. Ramsay discovered the noble gases, which are chemically inert.//

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;"> //Sir Isaac Newton: Sir Isaac Newton was born in 1643 and died in 1727. He made many important contributions to mathematics, physics, chemistry, and astronomy. Newton's main contribution to chemistry was the belief of an ultimate structure of matter. This further advocated atoms and eventually the modern view of molecules.//

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;"> //Marie Curie: Marie Curie was born in Warsaw on November 7, 1867. In 1891, she received her licentiateships in physics and mathematical sciences. She became the professor of general physics after the death of her husband, Pierre Curie. She promoted the use of radium to alleviate suffering during World War I. Marie and Pierre Curie won the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1903 for their study in spontaneous radiation.//

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;"> //Amedeo Avogadro: Amedeo Avogadro was born in Turin Italy on August 9, 1776. Despite having a successful legal career, Avogadro was interested in natural philosophy. Chemistry during this time was just becoming an exact science. Avogadro had many contributions. He wrote a journal in which he clearly drew the line between atoms and molecules. The “atoms” of nitrogen and oxygen are in fact “molecules” containing two atoms each. He used this to show that two molecules of hydrogen combine with one molecule of oxygen to form two molecules of water. He also suggested that gases of equal volume, pressure, and temperature have the same number of molecules.// //Stanislao Cannizarro used Avogadro’s Principle to compare atomic weights to actual weights to determine the number of molecules. This led to Avogadro’s number, 6.02 x 10^23.//

//<span style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">Le Chatelier: A French chemist born in 1850. Le Chatelier developed a principle that predicts changes in chemical equilibrium. //

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;"> **//__Learning Styles__//**

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;"> **//Clipboard://** //The most important way to ensure that a clipboard's needs are met is to be fully prepared before the class begins. I will structure my classroom to avoid chaos, have a set plan that is announced at the beginning of class, make sure that all assignments are laid out and explained, and all groups will be predetermined to create an ideal work environment.//

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;"> **//Microscope://** //As I microscope myself, I will be asking students to explore, ask questions, analyze, and think logically. Many of the mathematical and scientific concepts will engage the microscopes in the class.//

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;"> **//Puppy://** //The puppies in the classroom will have their needs met through the atmosphere I create (posters, cartoons), the layout of the room, and the availability for constructive, group work. I will make sure that I develop a mutual respect among all students and make sure that they do the same with their fellow classmates.//

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;"> **//Beach Ball://** //The beach balls will constantly be engaged with the transitions. I will be focusing on utilizing classroom instruction at the front of the room, short videos, group work, pair/feedback, labs, among other methods of instruction to help engage them.//

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;"> **//Rationale://** //My classroom will naturally meet the needs of all learning styles. I will create an organized classroom that focuses on respect. I will make my lessons engaging, so that students ask questions and analyze situations, but this will not be done with me in front of the classroom. Students will have frequent transitions to reach the various learners.//

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;"> **//Standard 4 - Plans instruction based upon knowledge of subject matter, students, curriculum goals, and learning and development theory.//**

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;"> **//Rationale://** //The entire unit is meant to build on the six facets of understanding. Lesson five focuses on the "empathy" facet. I developed the lesson to first remind students about what the properties of molecules are, then consider all of the reactions that can take place with a given molecule. Throughout the process students will be expected to collaborate with other students and are welcome to meet with me regarding the content. During the Prezi creation process, students will work in a pairs to help with their understanding of the lessons on energy and reactions.//

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;"> **//Standard 5 - Understands and uses a variety of instructional strategies and appropriate technology to meet students’ needs.//**

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">Verbal-Linguistic: Students will present their chemical reaction Prezi to the class.

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">Logical/Mathematical: Working with reactions requires many calculations. Two such calculations are equilibrium and entropy.

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">Visual/Spatial: The Prezi will be a visual representation of the various reactions that can take place in a molecule.

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">Bodily/Kinesthetic: Students will be moving around during labs that involve chemical reactions.

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">Musical/Rhythmic: Students will be required to incorporate audio into their Prezi

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">Intrapersonal: Students will create their own KWL Chart while planning their Prezi.

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;"> **//Type II Technology://**

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;"> **//Rationale://** //The lesson requires students to work alone, in pairs, and in groups larger than two. I have designed the lesson to not focus on the white board, but involve the entire classroom. Students will also use their Mac laptops to create their Prezi presentation.//

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;"> **//Standard 8 - Understands and uses a variety of formal and informal assessment strategies to evaluate and support the development of the learner.//**

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;"> **//Formative://** <span style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">After days 2, 3, and 4, I will check for understanding through the use of clicker questions. I will develop a short five question survey on the material that was covered that day. Each student will put in their answer using their clickers. I will use the data from the clicker questions to help direct instruction the following days.

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">A rubric will be used by the individual students and myself to assess the project. After completing their Prezi, students will fill out a rubric telling me how they think they performed. I will assess students during the presentations. Peer feedback will come in the form of the online Google Doc that asks for input on the project as a whole.

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;"> **__Summative (Assessment of Learning):__**

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">Students will create a Prezi at the end of the lesson that shows their learning of the various chemical reactions that can take place and why reactions take place. Students will be encouraged to incorporate images, videos, and text to help convey their information. The Prezi should be between 4-5 minutes long to help thoroughly explain all the chemical reactions. To make sure students do not have the same reactions, I will assign specific molecules that must be included and given to them when they receive the rubric to the Prezi project. Students will present their Prezi in small groups on day 6 of the lesson.

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;"> **//Rationale://** //Constant feedback will be provided to make sure my students are not left in the dark. The rubric in the summative assignment is a formal assessment strategies. Students are required to meet the specific areas and they will be assessed on all areas as they meet them. As a teacher, I do not plan to sit in my desk while the students are in groups. I fully intend to be engaged with my students through the entire process. This means that I will be available to help reinforce any principles and answer any questions.// || ||   || About · Blog · [|Pricing] · Privacy · Terms · [|**Support**] · [|**Upgrade**] Contributions to http://edu221spring11class.wikispaces.com are licensed under a [|Creative Commons Attribution Share-Alike 3.0 License].
