Do You Know? Behavior Log is out Copied Objective, HW into assignment list Review your Parent Letter Signed Lab Safety Contracts – Past Due Do You Know?

Mantra - Your Turn! Today is a great day for science because: Science is power. We are powerful because: We always make a difference.

Goals * State the Objective(s)/Standard (s)- Sci.7.1a, RI 7.1/2, W7.2 * State the Purpose (Big Idea) - Example science reports will provide students with models of how to write informational text about an experiment and adequately explain results and conclusions in an experiment SWBAT summarize techniques and tools available to make measurements when collecting data

Agenda I Do: SI Units We Do: Powers of 10 Conversions Groups: Match Powers of 10 I Do: Metric Conversions You Do: Practice Problems Summary/ Feedback/ Questions

SI Units A system of physical units ( SI Units ) based on the meter, kilogram, second, ampere, kelvin, candela, and mole, together with a set of prefixes to indicate multiplication or division by a power of ten.

We Do: Practice Measuring size Technique Units Measuring space Size of window Size of desk Measuring space Water A room in a house Measuring weight Pile of Powder A UPS Package

We Do: Powers of 10

Your Turn: Practice

Conversions

We do: Practice A piece of paper is 8.5 by 11 inches Find the perimeter by correct units Convert to feet Convert to meters Convert to kilometers Find the area with correct units

Last Items/ Questions Review Project Packet & have a guardian sign it! Need Troubleshooting or Project help?

Your Turn: Carefully read the small text and summarize the passage: Measurement is the process of obtaining the magnitude of a quantity relative to an agreed standard. Measurement of any quantity involves comparison with some precisely defined unit value of the quantity. Standard units of measure need to be identified and defined as accurately as possible. The system that is used in the scientific community is called Système International d’Unités, abbreviated to SI. All of the SI units used in scientific measurements can be derived from just seven fundamental units. Apart from mass, each of these units has a definition based on an unchanging property of nature. A number of non-SI units are commonly used, even though the SI system of units covers all scientific measurements. The reasons for this are historical, political and for everyday convenience.

GO GO FEEDBACK FRONTIER! Miss K – In my baggie (Comments on my teaching, living up to my goals, and any personal things you need to privately tell me) Your peers – Feedback to 1 or 2 people… What is something you saw him/her do that matched up with our class values? Why was it really great to see this?

This Week… Can’t help but think of home A place where Chemistry swirled, and I was never alone Parents who always questioned Dinner talks - always a lesson To my mother, everything made sense To be able to break life down into its simplest elements The tiniest part of existence So carefully found and compared yet seemingly so far from our lens

Life Depends on Chemistry Chemistry: The study of composition, structure, properties, and change in matter. Matter: anything that has mass and takes up space Write out in detail your observations of the outside 5 senses! How do you think they are related to chemistry?
