Wednesday is Early Dismissal Day! Early Dismissal will be at 2:30 p.m. this year :)  Essential Question : What are the parts of the atom? How do the subatomic particles of an atom compare? Objective:  Students should be able to: Identify that atoms are the smallest unit of all matter and that each atom consists of protons, neutrons, and electrons Identify the location of the nucleus and electron cloud and determine which subatomic particles belong in each location Determine the number of protons, neutrons, and electrons of common elements based on information on the periodic table of elements Create models of atoms in order to identify the number and location of their protons, neutrons, and electrons. Assignments:   Please access assignments and daily slides (notes) using Microsoft Teams through One View. - Atomic Models Investigation (Lesson 1) - Atomic Models Doodle Notes (Lesson 1) - Atomic Models Assignment (Lesson 1) - Atomic Theory (Lesson 2)

Our first assignment was given out Friday. It is an AOW or article of the week (which will be renamed shortly to Article of the Month). The AOM is not for homework and will be completed in class beginning  Friday, August 16th. Article's of the Month can be found on "Teams" under "Assignments." Our baseline testing will take place on Thursday and Friday of this week! Essential Question : What are the parts of the scientific process? How do science and pseudoscience compare? Objective:  Students should be able to: - Identify and explain the parts of the scientific process and how they are related - Explain that the scientific process is not linear, but a continuous model - Differentiate between science and pseudoscience Assignments:   Please access assignments and daily slides using Microsoft Teams through One View. - Science Process Foldable - Science Process Task Cards - Science vs. Pseudoscience card sort * Please make sure you have completed th
