3/11/13 and 3/12/13

Date: 3/11/13 and 3/12/13

Class: Physical Science

Periods: B2,3 and W1,3,4

Outcomes: Students will experience using a calorimeter and which has a greater effect on heating: conduction or radiation.

Standards: UCP.1-3,5; A.1-2; B.2,4,5,6; G.1

Student Needs: 

Assessment Plan: Lab Report

Lesson Outline: How do you know how many protons an atom has? What are the 3 ways thermal energy is transferred? Which ones require matter? Which one involves no movement of matter? > We are doing a lab today. > Go over directions for lab > Model the lab setup > Students complete lab and lab report and put data up on the board > Discuss lab results > Was there a difference between the temps and the temperature changes for the different cup materials? > Assign homework: Ch. 6 Review pg. 184 (1-15)

Review: How do you know how many protons an atom has? What are the 3 ways thermal energy is transferred? Which ones require matter? Which one involves no movement of matter?

Anticipatory Set/Opening: Lab Day, ask about their hypothesis answers.

Key Points:

Modeling: Lab setup

Checking for Understanding: Ask students to explain directions

Guided Practice/Monitoring: Lab

Closure: Discuss lab results

Independent Practice: Ch. 6 Review pg. 184 (1-15)
