Rocketry Lesson Plans Jan 26

Rocketry Lesson Plans

Week of January 26,2015

Monday-Friday:

Making a Video on Space or Creating an Internet Website on a Space Topic

Goal: To plan, design and produce (if equipment is available) a video or website on one of the science, technology or engineering topics listed under “Procedure”.

Key Concepts: Understanding some aspects of the science, technology and/or engineering involved in the construction

of the ISS and the science research that is conducted on the ISS; learning about ISS-related space careers; and video or website planning, design and production.

Subjects: Biology, chemistry, physics, Earth sciences, astronomy, technology, engineering, computer skills, careers, language arts (writing script for video or text for website).

Materials: video camera and editing equipment, or a computer for the website design.

Procedure: Planning a video or designing a website on an ISS-related topic requires students to become more deeply involved in understanding an aspect of the Space Station. Students work in teams of three or four to plan a video project or design a website on one of the space-related topics below. Links to websites

with images, drawings and resources are provided in the Resources Section, and at the Space Station Gallery website at: http://spaceflight.nasa.gov/gallery/images/station.

MRS. ALISSA JORDAN’S CHEMISTRY LESSON PLANS

WEEK OF JANUARY 26, 2015

Monday:

Al COS OBJ: 6.) Solve stoichiometric problems involving relationships among the number of particles, moles, and masses of reactants and products in a chemical reaction.  •  Predicting ionic and covalent bond types and products given known reactants •  Assigning oxidation numbers for individual atoms of monatomic and polyatomic ions •  Identifying the nomenclature of ionic compounds, binary compounds, and acids •  Classifying chemical reactions as composition, decomposition, single replacement, or double replacement •  Determining the empirical or molecular formula for a compound using percent composition data

In- Class: Students will learn the electronegativity differences in covalent and ionic bonds and how to distinguish them.  They will learn about polarity and bonds.

Homework:  study notes
