Relative Mass Bernadine Samson Modeling Workshop FHSU Supported in part by KBOR
Background • BS and MS from KSU • 6 years, Atwood USD 318, earth science, physics & chemistry • 1 year, McDonald USD 317, jr hi science, gen. science, physics & chemistry • 25 years, Cheylin USD 103 • 6 years of middle school science (grades 6-8)
Background (Continued) • 21 years physics • 19 years math (Over the years this included 7th grade, 8th grade algebra, algebra 1, algebra II, trig and intro to calculus, applied math I & II, computer programming and computer applications.) • 6 years, Colby USD 315, chemistry, physics, freshman science and ESL - 3years
Objectives Objectives for the afternoon • another lesson from modeling chemistry with a few modifications • sharing my experiences with modeling
The lesson: Relative Mass • Content objectives: counting by massing and relative masses as the basis of the periodic table. • Language objectives: accurately follow oral directions given in English to complete the lab; use appropriate science terms and complete English sentences to complete the conclusion to the lab; speak in English using appropriate science terms while completing the lab and during the post lab discussion.
5 - 7 Science Standards • 1.1.2 conducts scientific investigations safely using appropriate tools and mathematics to gather, analyze & interpret data. • 1.1.3 identifies relationship between evidence and logical conclusions. • 1.1.4 communicates scientific procedures, results and explanations. • 1.3.2 evaluates the work of others • 7.2.1 …replicates historic experiments to understand principles of science…
8-12 Science Standards • 1.1.3 correctly uses the appropriate tools and mathematics in scientific investigations. • 1.1.4 actively engages in conducting an inquiry… • 1.1.5 reports and defends the design, results and conclusions of the investigation. • 2A.2.2 understands the periodic table …. • 7.3.1 demonstrates an understanding of the history of science.
ESOL Standards • 1. The student listens to spoken English to develop communicative competence in academic language use. • 2. The student speaks in English in academically appropriate ways. • 4. The student writes technical text in English to achieve academic success in the content areas.
Clarification of Terms • Direct relationship = Directly proportional • When one quantity (variable ) changes, the second quantity (variable) changes in the same way. • Quantities and measurements have two parts: a number (magnitude) and a label or unit.
