Start the following in class:
1. In your Journal Notebook write your journal entry on sheets of three holed 8.5 inch by 11 inch ruled paper.
- In the upper right corner white space of each upward facing page, use a blue or black pen to write your hand in number within a circle followed by your name.
- To the left of the marginal line, print J83 and circle it.
- Each journal entry should either be at least a paragraph of exemplary writing and penmanship concerning a single topic, or be a concept map relating chemistry terms. Begin each day’s paragraph with a topic sentence, follow with explained instances, and close with a focused summary statement.
The required journal focus topic, J83, for today is:
- For any given problem question dealing with calculating one quantity from the given quantity, how does one select the proper conversion factors to obtain the correct result?
- Does the order of the conversion ratios meant to solve a given chemical problem make a difference? Give the reasoning that supports your written response.
2. Do all the pages in the chapter 10 Formative Test on Chemical Quantities as a formative assessment to find out some of the things that you do and do not know, and not as a research project.
- If you did not obtain a formative test packet for the chapter in class, go to MNSD Google Drive > Student Resources > Formative Tests and print off a copy of the test for the chapter you are studying. Each chapter test is identified by a name whose last two digits is the chapter number. When you open the chapter formative test the first page will have the words “Chapter Test A” in the title.
- For each question or problem challenge, either answer the question to the best of your ability using one or more full sentences, or answer the problem to the best of your ability by showing the problem setup on a pages in your Learning Log if there is not enough room on the handout. Record the quantity being sought for as equal to the quantity given as number and units along with the mathematical operations to be performed in symbolic terms. When the conversion ratios written are correct and the units of what is being solved for have been generated on the right side of the equal sign, calculate out the numerical portion of your answer expressed to the proper number of significant figures and followed by the units of the sought for quantity. Circle or box your final result.
- After doing the formative test, but before you demonstrate your understanding on our class’ chapter test, you will check all your responses using green ink check marks √ for each correct response, and by lining out (striking trough) and inserting improved text in green ink when you think the suggested response expresses your present understanding in a better way. In that way make sure that you understand each idea that you originally did not have a complete understanding of. Then you will be able to study more efficiently by studying that which you corrected in green ink.
Recommended for those who have time left in their 45 minute study period, but not required of all:
1. Check out the student made Quizlet for chapter 10 at https://quizlet.com/180911867/ch-10-chemical-quantities-flash-cards/. Do all the definitions reflect a thorough and correct understanding?
NOT APPLICABLE THIS YEAR:
1. Continue studying for any of your Mid-Term Examination make up examinations.
2. Continue studying for your open ended portion of your mid-year examination worth 20 points out of the total 100 points and the selected response portion of your mid-year examination worth 80 points out of the total of 100 points possible. The test will cover material from chapters one through ten and will be taken at your assigned test time as shown on the Infinite Campus web site.
3. Read over your Honors Chemistry Topics review sheet packet for the first semester, and make sure you understand each concept and are able to do each type of calculation listed. If you do not have a copy, the review packet can be printed to the library printer. You can find it on your Google Drive > Student Resources > Handouts LARN 82.
