Week-1 (4-8 Aug.)
Monday-syllabus, VARK test , and Alchemy versus chemistry video and demo.
Tuesday-Lab safety, lab equipment, and lab orientation.
Wednesday- PowerPoint notes-https://drive.google.com/file/d/0BxNwAcMMxlO3Sm9wYWtUU21vNEE/edit?usp=sharing measurements, i.e. metric system conversions and scientific notation. Continue with lab orientation, and good practices and techniques. Scientific notation ,metric system prefixes SI units and how to measure correctly using meters stick. Try this online lab equipment quiz for review- http://www.sciencegeek.net/Chemistry/taters/labequipment.htm

Thursday-begin lab orientation.

Friday-Introduction to chemistry video and review over Mondays quiz.
-HW- Watch Lab safety video at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hv9imJzZWrY and write main safety ideas (10 minimum)

Absent students-
  1.  acquire the notes of the day
  2.  to make up lab, write a one-page paper on the importance of using standards in science.  (Include how standards are used and what are the different standards used in science).
  3. Watch chemistry video hyperlink above and answer these questions                                        

H.W> Watch YouTube Lab safety video and follow the above mentioned requirements.


  1.  notes on the metric system; how to do metric conversions; writing numbers in scientific notation; multiplying and dividing numbers in scientific notation using calculator. For reinforcement look at pages 126-132 in your textbook and do some of the problems on page 164 (1-20).
  2.  Hand out issues with the lab equipment that will be used in class throughout the year.
  3. http://www1.nsd131.org/classpages/awilkens/Shared%20Documents/Scientific%20Notation%20Worksheets.pdf This is the website used to practice metric conversions and scientific notation conversion multiplication and division. http://www.lavc.edu/math/math125/Worksheets/MDscientific.pdf
  4. Handout issued with safety regulations for parent signature and science lab orientation to be performed Friday.

  1.  that safety and that equipment will be discussed.
  2. To those who perform science lab orientation
