Sames Physical Science

Essential Question:

• How are the building blocks of matter arranged on the periodic table?
  

Objectives:

• To have a general understanding of the main categories on the Periodic Table.
  To have a strong understanding of the information behind an element square.
  

Agenda:

• Warm-up: ATOMIC WHAT?

• Complete Bohr Model
  
  • Make label card for Bohr model
    • Follow template on board: Name, Class, Atomic Mass, Atomic Number, Protons, Neutrons, Electrons, etc.
      
  • Attach hook (we’ll try to get a few hung up)
    
  • Complete and turn-in Self-Evaluation
  • Stand back and bask in the glow of a job well done, again
• Complete metal, non-metal, and metalloid notes: LINK
