Unit:
Science ch. 5
Lesson Title:
Intro to the Physical Properties of Matter
Overview:
Begin to discuss and define with the students the physical properties of matter; and identify the different forms of matter
Procedures:
Start with calendar time
1. Read workbook pages 125-126 as a class and complete questions 1-4 on page126             20 min
2. Complete Graphic organizer for the three types of matter                                                                                  10 min
3. Lab with lab sheet to turn in                                                                                                                                 20 min
     -Station 1 Oobleck
     -Station 2 Heat a cup of water
     -Station 3 Hold an ice cube
4. Back pocket                                                                                                                                    15 min
      - Define what a physical change is
      - Define what a chemical change is
      - categorize examples by placing them in the correct back pocket.
(IF extra time watch BrainPop on matter)
Materials:
Science workbook
Graphic organizers
Oobleck
Water, beaker, heat source
Ice cubes
Back pockets
Strips of examples
Assignments:

1. Graphic organizers will be looked at 

2. Lab sheets will be collected for grading 
Assessments:
Formative assessment will come in the form of careful observation of student participation throughout the lesson.
Summative assessment will be through the collected lab sheet reports

Thursday 

Feb. 9th 2017

Unit:
Science Ch. 5
Lesson Title:
Categorizing Matter
Overview:
 Students will begin to learn how to classify different types of matter by their properties.
Procedures:
Read page 129 as a whole group class and complete page 130                           10 min
Go over page 131 as a whole group class                                                                  10 min
Complete lab on page 134-137                                                                                     30 min
Have students complete page132 independently, go over as a whole group      10 min

Materials:
Student science workbooks
Balance scale
Plastic cups
Masking tape
Gram cubes
Container of water
Magnets
8 test objects
    Chalk
    Pencil
    Quarter
     Paper clip
     Rubber band
     Marble
      Toothpick
      Pipe cleaner
Assignments:

Lab sheet on pages 135-137

Assessments:
Formative assessment will be taken the form of careful observations of the students during the lesson
Summative assessment students will need to turn in their completed lab sheets at the end of class.

Friday 

Feb. 10th 2017

Unit:
Science chapter 5
Lesson Title:
Group Experiment Day  
Overview:
Have students complete various lab experiments to deeper understanding of different types of matter, and how to classify matter
Procedures:
Review with the class the steps of the scientific method                                                 5 min
Complete as a whole group- give each group job titles                          
1. First classify each item they have at their lab into what form of matter it is and state a question…”What happens when…
2. Then make a prediction of hypothesis about what they think will happen when they add   the ingredients together
3. Preform the experiments
         Lab one : Making butter (enough for each table/ split two center groups to establish
         4 groups)
         Lab two : Fizz bottle, filling up a balloon with gas
         Lab three:  Making ice cream (enough for each student)
         Lab four:  Coke and Mentos
4. Have students complete a lab report together as we go through experiments      
       -
Materials:
Lab reports per each group
Lab jobs for each group
Poster of scientific method
Baking soda
Containers to place bottles in
Whipping cream
Mason jar
Fizz bottle
Balloon
Ice cream
Coke
Mentos
Assignments:

Complete each lab report after experiment is conducted

Assessments:
Formative Assessment: will be taken the form of careful observations of the students during the lesson
Summative Assessment: will be found through group lab reports.

Standard - 3.2.3.A4

Use basic reactions to demonstrate observable changes in properties of matter (e.g., burning, cooking).

Standard - 3.2.6.A4

Differentiate between physical changes and chemical changes.

Standard - 3.1.5.A9

  • Understand how theories are developed.
  • Identify questions that can be answered through scientific investigations and evaluate the appropriateness of questions.
  • Design and conduct a scientific investigation and understand that current scientific knowledge guides scientific investigations.
  • Describe relationships using inference and prediction.
  • Use appropriate tools and technologies to gather, analyze, and interpret data and understand that it enhances accuracy and allows scientists to analyze and quantify results of investigations.
  •  Develop descriptions, explanations, and models using evidence and understand that these emphasize evidence, have logically consistent arguments, and are based on scientific principles, models, and theories.
  • Analyze alternative explanations and understanding that science advances through legitimate skepticism.
  • Use mathematics in all aspects of scientific inquiry.
  • Understand that scientific investigations may result in new ideas for study, new methods, or procedures for an investigation or new technologies to improve data collection.
