Week of: March 21-24, 2017 / Unit : Atoms and the Periodic Table, Changes in Matter / Dates:January 30 – March 10, 2017
Florida Standard(s):
Benchmarks, descriptions, DOK levels, standards unpacked (know/do) highlighted / SC.8.P.8.5 Recognize that there are a finite number of elements and that their atoms combine in a multitude of ways to produce compounds that make up all of the living and nonliving things that we encounter. (Also assesses SC.8.P.8.1, SC.8.P.8.6, SC.8.P.8.7, SC.8.P.8.8, SC.8.P.8.9)
SC.8.P.8.1 Explore the scientific theory of atoms (also known as atomic theory) by using models to explain the motion of particles in solids, liquids, and gases.
SC.8.P.8.6 Recognize that elements are grouped in the periodic table according to similarities of their properties.
SC.8.P.8.7 Explore the scientific theory of atoms (also known as atomic theory) by recognizing that atoms are the smallest unit of an element and are composed of sub-atomic particles (electrons surrounding a nucleus containing protons and neutrons). SC.8.P.8.8 Identify basic examples of and compare and classify the properties of compounds, including acids, bases, and salts.
SC.8.P.8.9 Distinguish among mixtures (including solutions) and pure substances.
SC.8.P.9.2 Differentiate between physical changes and chemical changes. (Also assesses: SC.8.P.9.1 and SC.8.P.9.3)
SC.8.P.9.1 Explore the Law of Conservation of Mass by demonstrating and concluding that mass is conserved when substances undergo physical and chemical changes. SC.8.P.9.3 Investigate and describe how temperature influences chemical changes.
Learning Goal: /
  • Recognize that there are a finite number of elements and that their atoms combine to produce compounds that make up all of the living and nonliving things.
  • Understand how to use the periodic table.
  • Explain the scientific theory of atoms.
  • Students will be able to differentiate between physical changes and chemical changes.
  • Students will be able to provide evidence that the Law of Conservation of Mass is true.
  • Describe how temperature influences chemical change.

Essential Question /
  • Why is it important to understand the organization of the periodic table?
  • What is the relationship between protons, neutrons, and electrons?
  • How would you justify the role of pH in determining the use of a substance?
  • Defend the difference between mixtures and solutions.
  • How would you use the periodic table to determine what elements combine to form compounds?
  • How does mass change during a chemical and physical changes?
  • What experimental evidence supports the difference between chemical and physical changes?
  • What evidence supports the Law of Conservation of Mass?

Assessments / Pre-assessment: Probe questions
Formative Assessments: Quiz, Cornell Notes, Kahoot, Teacher observations
Summative Assessments: Unit 11 End Product, 9 weeks assessment
Progress Monitoring/Feedback Loop / Learning Log, Exit Tickets, Learning Scale
Higher Order Question(s) /
  • What does the atomic structure of an element tell us about it?
  • How does an element change once it combines with another element?
  • What does the atomic theory state?
  • Who contributed to the development of the atomic theory?
  • What are the major components of the atom for an element?
  • How are the elements grouped on the periodic table?
  • What is pH and how is it used to distinguish between an acid and a base?
  • How are pure substances, mixtures and solutions different?
  • How are physical and chemical changes different?
  • What does the Law of Conservation of Mass and how it is applied in chemical changes?
  • How does temperature influences chemical changes and changes in state?

The Influence of Temperature on Rate of Reactions.

Choose the activity or activities below to show what you’ve learned about the lesson. You may work by yourself, with a partner, or in a small group (3-4 people).

Directions: Choose from the activities below to earn a total of five or more stars.

**2 stars

- Research metabolism. In four to five complete sentences explain how lower body temperature slows down the metabolism in the body.

- Find a food item that requires higher temperatures for it to bake faster (exp. cookies, cakes, etc.) Draw and label a diagram that shows how higher temperatures allow the final product to form faster.

***3 stars

- Perform a skit using the effervescent demonstration. Using the kinetic energy theory perform a skit in which you explain what is happening at the molecular level when the effervescent tablet is dropped in water at various temperatures.

-Create a collage or poster with 3-4 examples of chemical changes that we see every day where the reaction rate is influenced by temperature. Label and describe how the temperature influences the chemical change.

******5 stars

-Design and perform an experiment using glow-sticks to show how the rate of reaction in this chemical change responds to different temperatures. It must include the following: independent variable, dependent variable, controlled variables, hypothesis, purpose, materials, procedures, data, and conclusion.- (must have teacher approval)

- Write a one-page summary of the process of dough rising Paper should address the following questions:

What is dough made of?

How does dough rise?

Does dough rise in warmer or cooler places? Explain.

How does kinetic energy relate to dough rising in warmer places?
