Week of November 23 — November 25 Monday: Happy Thanksgiving! Quiz: Kinetic Energy, Potential Energy, Forms of Energy (S.M.E.N.C.H.) WS: Temperature and Heat Transfer
Tuesday: Notes: Temperature and Heat Transfer
Wednesday Demonstrations of heat Transfer
Thursday: Eating
Friday Recovering on the couch
Week of November 16 — November 20 Monday: Take-Home Lab assigned—Due Friday Students picked a take home lab to do. Labs dealt mostly with Newton’s laws, Gravity, and Energy conversion (all required aluminum cans.
Notes: Types of Energy, Energy conversions, Conservation of Energy, Kinetic Energy, and Potential Energy. WS: Types of Energy Review
Tuesday: Lab: Energy Types (SMENCH)
Wednesday
Review Lab on Energy Notes: Kinetic and Potential Energy
Thursday: WS: KE and PE
Friday Take-Home lab due Demostrations: KE and PE
Week of November 9 — November 13 Monday: Mini Question from last week: Birds in a semi? If a bird is flying, it will weigh exactly the same as a bird sitting. In order to fly a bird must push down with a force equal to the weight of the bird (Newton’s 3rd Law). This force is transferred to the air, and ultimately to the floor of the truck; therefore, the birds are pushing on the truck floor one way or the other (just thought you might want to know).
Lab: Pendulum Factors EOC Lab Write-up on Wednesday
Tuesday: Lab: Catapult Lab data collection (EOC)
Wednesday Lab: Formal Lab Write-up of the Catapult Lab data Students take only the data form the Catapult Lab and create an entire lab write-up, including all the steps of a lab, data, graphs, and conclusion. (sounds like fun to me)
Thursday: Notes: Work and Power
Friday Notes: Types of Energy
Week of November 2—November 6 Monday: Mini Question: Birds in a semi? If a bird is flying, does it weigh less than a bird sitting? Handwritten, no research needed, but an expert opinion is required. Due Wednesday. Quiz: Wednesday—Gravity and Newton’s 3 Laws of Motion Parent / Teacher Conferences Wednesday and Thursday
Notes: Newton’s 3rd Law
Tuesday: Review of Gravity and Newton’s laws Newton Cartoons
Wednesday Quiz: Gravity and Newton’s 3 Laws of Motion
Thursday: Lab: Review for EOC Lab write-up
Friday Off
Week of October 26—30 Monday: No Mystery Question this week. MQ: Answer from last week: How much would you weigh at the center of the Earth You would weigh zero. Half of the mass is above you and half is below you, so you would be pulled equally in both directions; therefore, would be weightless. Most of your experts did a heck of a job getting it right. And to answer a couple of comments: I know it would be too hot for anyone to care, and It would only be a good diet plan if you didn’t come back to the surface.
Notes and Demos: Gravity
Tuesday: Notes and Demos: Gravity
Wednesday Newton’s 1st Law of Motion
Thursday: Newton’s 2nd Law of Motion
Friday Lab: Newton’s Laws
Week of October 19—October 23 Monday: MQ: How much would you weigh at the center of the Earth (assuming you could build a tunnel though the Earth) Due Friday Quiz: Velocity and Acceleration Gravity introduction
Tuesday: Notes: Gravity
Wednesday Lab: Gravity (1st half)
Thursday: Lab: Gravity (2nd half)
Friday Mystery Questions Due! (see Monday) Lab: Terminal Velocity w/ Motion Probes
Week of October 12—October 16 Monday: Notes: Speed, Velocity, Acceleration Finish Lab Write-up Quiz: Friday
Tuesday: Lab: Computer Simulation
Wednesday Acceleration Notes WS: Acceleration
Thursday: Review: Speed, Acceleration Review for quiz
Friday Quiz: Speed, Acceleration OOPS! Moving it to Monday, too many kids out sick to cover the information adequately.
