Your goal is to not just state the property, but to explain WHY that property is true in terms of how the bonds are formed, movement of electrons and intermolecular forces.

Your group will be responsible for making a short, creative video that will explain your property to your chemistry classmates.

From our text, read Unit 1 - Section V: Lesson 26

Read about metallic compounds here:

Read about Ionic and Molecular compounds here:

Feel free to ask me questions and use the internet to find more information.

 

Covalent and Ionic bonds are considered Intramolecular Forces (within a molecule), but there are also Intermolecular Forces that occur between molecules.  There are different types of Intermolecular Forces with varying strengths which play a large role in the properties of compounds.  We also learned in the Heat Energy unit that phase changes occur when enough energy is added to a substance to overcome the Intermolecular Forces between molecules.  We'll look more specifically at this later.

Our lovely staff of volunteer judges will be coming through on Thursday/Friday next week to hear about your amazing science fair projects.  Put together your boards (feel free to get creative) and have them ready to go!  I will give you time this Thursday/Friday in class to work on your boards, so be sure to bring printed materials (I have glue and markers).  We will practice presenting projects on Monday in class, so have your boards then as well.  I will be allowing students to store boards in my classroom over the next week.

Remember - I have 60 donated boards to give away to students.  They will be given to the first 60 students who submit their final paper via TurnItIn.com.  Spots are filling up fast!  Hurry and get that paper in!

In Google Classroom - complete and submit your proposal to present at the science fair speaker panels.  This is a REQUIRED part of your summative science fair grade, however, if you are chosen to present you may choose to opt out.

Complete the proposal application and 4-5 slides that you plan to use in your presentation.  Attach both of these files and submit them by Monday.

Science Fair is due February 12th.  Please read the attached rubric and view the calendar for an idea of upcoming due dates.

Rough Draft Episode Two - the Return of the Peer Editor

A little while ago in a classroom not too far away.... Science Fair!!

 

At the request of your peers, I'm giving you a second shot at getting credit for submitting a rough draft, having your peers evaluate and give you feedback, and providing you with the opportunity to learn about the writing process by evaluating the work of others.

If you turned in a rough draft via TurnItIn.com for "Rough Draft Episode One - A New Project" - read the second half of the PeerMark guide which describes how to read the reviews you've received and evaluate the helpfulness of their feedback (link: https://guides.turnitin.com/01_Manuals_and_Guides/Student/Student_User_Manual/19_PeerMark)

I will give you the ENTIRE CLASS PERIOD Tuesday/Wednesday to work on revisions.  Revisions of your your paper must be turned in by Thursday at 8:25 am if you want them to be included in the peer editing process/get credit if you didn't the first time.  Thursday will work exactly like Monday.

 

In addition to the suggestions your peers have compiled (take a picture of the white board in class), I offer the following sage advice:

Title Page - You should still NOT INCLUDE this so that the reviews of your paper are anonymous.  I will go over creating these on Thursday.

Abstract - Now is the time to write this page.  It's pretty simple.  Use a large-ish paragraph to summarize your entire paper.  This is required as part of your presentation.

Formatting - Use the template in a program like Pages or Word.  May the APA be with you.

Introduction - the first section of your paper should be between 1 and 2 pages (double spaced, as per APA formatting).  That's approximately a paragraph per resource and a concluding paragraph in which you should make your research question, hypothesis and null hypothesis abundantly clear.

Methods/Design - make sure your materials and procedures are clear and detailed enough that they could be replicated.  There is some discussion over whether paragraph form or a numbered list is better.  Technically, APA asks for paragraph form.  As far as your grade, I'm more concerned with your content than your formatting in this section.

Results - Don't forget a text description here!  It is not sufficient to just copy and paste your data tables and graphs.  Technically, per APA, those go at the end of your paper on a separate page and all that would be here are words.  So without those words, your results section is technically blank.

Analysis - Explain what your results mean.  Use the examples I shared last week for inspiration.  Don't forget to write what your claim is.  Use several (3+) pieces of evidence in support.  Write a sincere error analysis and spend some serious time thinking about changes you would make and future research possibilities.  This section should also be 1-2 pages.

Works Cited - Include this.  Don't forget, may the APA be with you.  The template is already formatted for you.  Use it.

Complete the rough draft of your Science Fair paper and submit it to TurnItIn.com.  NO NOT INCLUDE a title page or your name anywhere on the document!

 

Use the attached resources to assist you.

If you are looking for exemplary examples to help you understand how to write each section of your research paper and what APA format should look like, please see the 2 attached files.

One is the Western Sierra Journal of Psychology, which is peer reviewed and published by the Psychology Club.  Since it is a research journal, it will be missing the typical cover page and header formatting.

The other is a research paper I wrote in college (this was for a psychology lab) that looks at ideal mate preferences.  This follows the same format we are using for your science fair write-ups in class.

Read the following guide and complete the Peermark assignment in TurnItIn.com.  This assignment will close at midnight tonight!

 

 

Hints:  If you save or submit a review and want to go back in and make changes - you will need to LOG OUT and log back in to TurnItIn.com for the appropriate buttons to appear.

Please be mindful of the comments you are leaving.  They should be appropriate and constructive, not hurtful.

Complete the inferential statistics assignments on Google Classroom.

Use the attached Pearson Correlation Coefficient guide for correlational data:

What different correlation coefficients look like:

Here's an explanation of the difference between standard deviation and variance:

In Google Classroom: Read the ISEF Science Fair Categories and use the form in Google Classroom to report which category your project belongs to.

Complete the Descriptive Statistics assignment on Google Classroom.

Begin working on the Introduction of your paper.  Drafts of the final paper will be due Monday, February 8th.

If you did not get the handouts for Hypothesis, Analyzing Data and Writing a Lit Review, they are attached.

Complete the data collection/experiment part of your science fair project.  You will have time in class on Mon/Tues/Wed as well as during advisory/enrichment as needed.  Be prepared to analyze data on Thursday/Friday.

Bring the first draft of your procedures to class on Thursday/Friday for peer review.

Students will need to peer edit their research questions for science fair.  Have students pick their top 2 questions and write the questions at the top of a blank page in their lab notebook (1 page per research question). 

They will need 2-3 students to leave feedback for each question. The students leaving feedback need to write their name and their suggestions.  Have them evaluate whether the question is testable and clear.

Once peer editing is finished, have students revise their research question and pick their top choice.  If there is time, they can start revising their design and writing procedures for testing their research question.

For each of the 3 questions you picked to research on Tuesday/Wednesday, complete the following in your lab notebook:

- List the original question you asked at the top of the page

- For each of the 3 articles you looked up, list the name of the article and write a 2-3 sentence summary of the article.  

*** This summary is only to help you develop your research question and design.  At this point, it should only be a short summary of the article for you to refer to.  You will write a full summary later in your research report.***

- Write what your proposed Independent (what you want to change) and Dependent (what you want to measure) variables will be.

- Write a list of possible experimental groups you could test.

 

Homework - Read about writing a testable question here:  http://school.discoveryeducation.com/sciencefaircentral/Getting-Started/Investigation.html

For each of your questions, revise your question into a "final draft" of your testable question.  Be prepared to bring these in on Monday for peer editing.

Use the following information to access ProQuest for research.  Plan on finding and bringing in at least 3 articles for each of the 3 questions you are exploring.

 

 

Our Unit 5 test on Energy in Matter will be on Dec 17th/18th.  If you know you will be absent on those days, it is your responsibility to schedule and take the test BEFORE BREAK.  Use the attached performance scales to prepare for the test.  Reading questions were not assigned for this unit, but there are several sections of reading that covers the materials.  The reading is listed on the performance scales.  Additionally, these videos will help you review the material.

 

 

Hello!

As the semester ends, please make sure you know what your grade is in Chemistry and if there are any retakes you need to complete.  

 

The last day to retake tests or turn in work in order for it to appear on the Semester 1 report cards will be 12/18.  Per the grading policy, students with Semester 1 Incompletes will need to complete a learning plan to receive a grade in the class.  The deadline for completing learning plans is January 29th for 11th and 12th graders and February 11th for 9th and 10th graders.

 

We will have one more summative that will appear on this semester's grade - the Unit 5 Energy in Matter test will be on December 17th and 18th.  Students will have 3 weeks second semester to retake this test as needed (must meet qualifications per the grading policy to retake for a higher grade - so submit your portfolio and be sure you take the test on or before the day it is administered!)

You MUST print all 4 lab write-ups from this unit to turn in and use on your test this Thursday/Friday.  The level 4 question will ask you to use evidence from your labs to support a claim about the relationship between two variables we've been exploring through our labs.

 

If you know you will be absent on Thursday/Friday, you must come see me to take the test early.
