Day / Monday 9-29-14 / Tuesday 9-30-14 / Wednesday 10-1-14 / Thursday 10-2-14
Bellwork / Explain the following statement “In general, a calculated answer cannot be more precise than the least precise measurement from which it was calculated” / With your teams answer the pre-lab questions on page 2 in your composition book. On your bellwork sheet write “Pre-lab questions in composition book” / When reading a ruler or graduated cylinder to what place beyond the smallest scale division marked should you estimate? / Explain the following statement “In general, a calculated answer cannot be more precise than the least precise measurement from which it was calculated”
Activity / Go over the 6 rules for significant figures and the do examples with the students
Students read the rule, teacher writes it on the board, teacher gives examples and students tell the number of significant figures in each measurement. / Introduction to measurementLab #4
Mass, Length, and Volume
Part A and Part B
(Explore) / Introduction to measurement Lab #4
Mass, Length, and Volume
Part C and Part D / Give students time to finalize their lab questions
Class mtg.
Problem: Students are not following directions for lab notebooks
Problem: Teams are not making sure that everyone in their team is understanding the work
Transition / Does this make more sense now that it has been explained to you? What do you need clarification still at this point? / Clean up work area and get back to your seats with your team / Share solutions with class…..
Activity / Correct HW from Wednesday pages 72 and 79 / Finish lab questions
