week 15


 

  1. What did you learn this week?
This wee, we did an activity with baking soda and vinegar. We learned how we can teach our future students about this phenomenon. The idea that matter is never destroyed but in a chemical reaction, a solid and a liquid can produce a gas. 
  1. Are you able to relate what you learned to what you already knew?
Yes, in high school chem, we would do similar experiments in order to understand matter. 


  1. What are new or remaining questions? 
Why does the chemical reaction only last a few seconds? why does the reaction not occur after the substances are mixed?

week 11 science 2

  The big question addressed in lab, and a description of what you did. We started lab having small and whole group discussion about formative assessments and teaching students based off of their questions. Next, we did an activity to determine 'who came first' which translates to how we are currently learning about things in earths history that occured first. We did an invesigation to determine what came fist in the principle of superposition.  - rocks form layers that become buried under more layers over time, the deeper we dig, the farther back in time we see. Fossils found deeper and deeper mean it gets older and older.  We also looked at the layers of earth.  1. sandstone  2. mudstone  3. limestone 4. volcanic ash  5. granite (shifts up, lead to fault line)  sand created through water is polished, smooth, similar in size  glaciers, polished, smooth, irregualr in size  wind  A description of what you learned in Thursda...

  The big question addressed in lab, and a description of what you did. We talked about when things  appeared/were created on earth.  our table groups timeline:  4000 mya oldest rock on earth  3400 mya 1st life on earth  2400 mya great oxygenation event  470 mya first land plants  200/300 mya pangea formed  A description of what you learned in Thursday's lecture. we took an exam during lecutre.  Answer questions about the weekly textbook reading What did you learn?  For the text book reading, I completed the practice quiz for our exam.  I learned about the history of the earth by looking at it represented on a clock. It was a different perspective and showed how spread out everythig really is. Humans were not on Earth until close to midnight on the clock example while rocks formed on earth occured so long ago (billions of years)  What was most helpful? The graphics were extremely helpful and descriptive when looking at ear...
