7th Grade Science Students- I will not be here today in school. I am not feeling well. Please still prepare for the quiz to be administered tomorrow. A current event is due. When you have finished the current event please take the time to study for the quiz. You can find resources on this webpage as well as on the Schoology exit tickets.

B-Day

Inspirational Quote of the Day: “Education is the passport to the future, for tomorrow belongs to those who prepare for it today.”– Malcolm X

Objective: Atoms in Chemical Reactions

What are the smallest particles of matter?

Students will...

use the the periodic table to investigate the elements and how different elements were used.

Standards:MS-PS1-1 Develop models to describe the atomic composition of simple molecules and extended structures.

MS-PS1-2 Analyze and interpret data on the properties of substances before and after the substances interact to determine if a chemical reaction has occurred

MS-PS1-5 Develop and use a model to describe how the total number of atoms does not change in a chemical reaction and thus mass is conserved.

MS-LS1-8 Gather and synthesize information that sensory receptors respond to stimuli by sending messages to the brain for immediate behavior or storage as memories

MS-PS1-6:

Undertake a design project to construct, test, and modify a device that either releases or absorbs thermal energy by chemical processes.

MS-ETS1-2:

Evaluate competing design solutions using a systematic process to determine how well they meet the criteria and constraints of the problem.

MS-ETS1-3:

Analyze data from tests to determine similarities and differences among several design solutions to identify the best characteristics of each that can be combined into a new solution to better meet the criteria for success.

MS-ETS1-4:

Develop a model to generate data for iterative testing and modification of a proposed object, tool, or process such that an optimal design can be achieved.

Warm-Up:
