Worked on missing assignments today for those that needed to and those completed with everything got to work on an Alien Periodic Table followed by coloring of their favorite alien.  Have a great break, be safe and see you soon!  Be kind to the turkey!

Chemistry Bingo Review!


Chemistry test TOMORROW!
The following link has the test review. 
In class today we played BINGO in order to review what we need to know for the test.  You must be able to read the periodic table and understand how atomic mass is calculated as well as how to find the number of protons, neutrons and electrons!  Study!  It's in your best interest!

Bohr Model Activity

In class today, we worked on creating models of various elements and then answered questions about the models.  This was intended to be a review of Bohr models as well as reinforcing concepts already learned in preparation for the test on Thursday.  The worksheet we worked on is below.

Review/Catch Up Day

In class today, we finished up our Element Trading Cards and worked on the worksheet below.  This worksheet is REVIEW.  You should have a pretty good handle on identifying mass, atomic #, protons, neutrons and electrons at this point.  We have a test on Thursday!  I have included a review sheet below for you to begin studying for the test if you choose.  The Element Trading Card is due tomorrow or it's considered LATE.  Late, will lose 10% of their overall grade for the assignment.
