Teacher(s): Littles Grade/Subject: 8 th /Physical Science Week of: Dec 7 - Dec 11, 2015 Unit : Atoms and the Periodic Table Dates: Nov 30 Dec 18, 2016 Florida Standard(s): Benchmarks, descriptions, DOK levels, standards SC.8.P.8.5 Recognize that there are a finite number of elements and that their atoms combine in a multitude of ways to produce compounds that make up all of the living and nonliving things that we encounter. unpacked (know/do) SC.8.P.8.1 Explore the scientific theory of atoms (also known as atomic theory) by using highlighted models to explain the motion of particles in solids, liquids, and gases. SC.8.P.8.8 Identify basic examples of and compare and classify the properties of compounds, including acids, bases, and salts. Learning Goal: Recognize that there are a finite number of elements and that their atoms combine to produce compounds that make up all of the living and nonliving things. Essential Question How would you justify the role of energy in change of state? Why is it important to understand the organization of the periodic table? What is the relationship between protons, neutrons, and electrons? How would you justify the role of ph in determining the use of a substance? Defend the difference between mixtures and solutions. How would you use the periodic table to determine what elements combine to? Assessments Pre-Assessment: Atoms and Periodic Table Pre-test Formative Assessment: Quiz, Writing Prompts., Cornell Notes Summative Assessment: Writing Prompt on Compounds Progress Monitoring/ Learning Logs, Exit Tickets Feedback Loop Higher Order Question(s) In studying the structure of atoms, how are they classified in the periodic table and how does each atom for an element have a specific structure? How do atoms can combine to produce different molecules with different properties? What is the theory of atoms and how was the atomic theory developed? How can you draw and label an atom with its appropriate number of protons, neutrons and electrons? How can one explain the structure of the periodic table and how elements are grouped? What is the concept of ph and what are some common acids and bases? How can one differentiate between pure substances, mixtures and solutions?

Inquiry Questioning strategies that help students understand the content Higher level questioning in classes Costa s Level 1: Students find the answers right there in the text. Costa s Level 2: Students must figure out the answer from information in the text. Costa s Level 3: Students Collaboration Working together with a partner or in a group of students to understand, to problem solve, or to complete a task/project Think Pair Share Sharing ideas with a partner or in a group Carousel/Gallery Walk Problem solving in groups Projects in groups Reading Any strategies in reading that help students understand Before reading activities vocabulary activities accessing prior knowledge making predictions During reading activities marking the text Cornell notes graphic organizers After reading strategies summarizing
