MARTONEN- ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCE LESSON PLANS- 11/21/16
HIGH SCHOOL CONTENT STANDARDS ADDRESSED
HS-ETS1-1: Analyze a major global challenge to specify qualitative and quantitative criteria and constraints for solutions that account for societal needs and wants.
HS-ETS1-2: Design a solution to a complex real-world problem by breaking it down into smaller, more manageable problems that can be solved through engineering.
HS-ETS1-3: Evaluate a solution to a complex real-world problem based on prioritized criteria and trade-offs that account for a range of constraints, including cost, safety, reliability, and aesthetics, as well as possible social, cultural, and environmental impacts.
HS-ETS1-4: Use a computer simulation to model the impact of proposed solutions to a complex real-world problem with numerous criteria and constraints on interactions within and between systems relevant to the problem.
HS-PS1-2: Construct and revise an explanation for the outcome of a simple chemical reaction based on the outermost electron states of atoms, trends in the periodic table, and knowledge of the patterns of chemical properties.
HS-PS1-4: Develop a model to illustrate that the release or absorption of energy from a chemical reaction system depends upon the changes in total bond energy.
HS-PS1-5: Apply scientific principles and evidence to provide an explanation about the effects of changing the temperature or concentration of the reacting particles on the rate at which a reaction occurs.
HS-PS1-7: Use mathematical representations to support the claim that atoms, and therefore mass, are conserved during a chemical reaction.
MONDAY-
1) Ecosystem Jar final observation and assessment day in booklet- one last week to make changes before final chemical tests next week and final lab report is assigned.
2) Ch 5 review sheet due Wednesday
TUESDAY-
1) Ecosystem Jar final observation and assessment day in booklet- one last week to make changes before final chemical tests next week and final lab report is assigned. This class period is dedicated to making as many microscope sketches and identifications as possible as per the project goal- create an
closed ecosystem with as many food chains and trophic levels as possible.
2) Finish Chapter 5 review
WEDNESDAY-
1) Chapter 4-6 group teach presentations- students will present in groups and take notes on other presentations for a grade according to project rubric. This
will take approximately 3 class periods.
2) Lab- Johnny Appleseed- read story then research benefits of plants and photosynthesis with chrome books and report 25 benefits of plants.
THURSDAY & FRIDAY-
NO SCHOOL
