I hope you all enjoyed your weekend. We are coming up on the last week of Chemistry and we will be continuing our Science Fair classwork. Progress Reports will be going home on Friday, May 18th. As always, please sign and return them to me on the following Monday for a class homework assignment. Have a great week!

Students will complete Lesson 15 "Atoms in equals Atoms out: Vinegar and Baking Soda". They are building models of molecules as the products and the reactants and getting very good at it. The will complete the Think and Write questions on page 73, 1-5. If there is any time left, we will work on our Science Fair project.

Students will complete lesson 16 "Atoms in equals Atoms out: Burning Butane". They again will be building models of the molecules and also looking at the chemical formulas. Students will be totally independent for this activity today. We have practiced this type of lesson 4 times now and everyone should know what to do. The Think and Write questions from page 76 #1-8 will be assigned and due tomorrow.

Creation Station
