Weeks 7 and 8 Oct. 20- 31

Goals:
1. Know the boiling and melting/freezing temperatures of water in Celcius.
2. Know that temperature is an indicator of the speed (kinetic energy) of the particles in a substance.
3. Be able to describe relative particle behavior and spacing during solid, liquid and gas phases.
4. Be able to label sections of a heating curve and describe what the added energy is doing during each section.
5. Be able to classify samples of matter as either pure substance or mixture.
6. Be able to describe on a molecular level what is happening during dissolving and in a solution.
7. Be able to describe several methods for separating mixtures, including filtering and distilling.

Weeks 5 and 6 - Oct. 6 to Oct. 16

Goals:
1. Know the density of water: 1g/ml.
2. Know what mass, volume and density are and how to measure them.
3. Know that the density of a pure substance is constant (at a given temperature and pressure).
4. Know that the solid phase is almost always more dense than the liquid phase, but that water is an exception.
5. Know that fresh water is a precious and effectively limited resource.

Activities:
Monday: Go over returned Test. Notes on mass and volume. Introduce density of water lab.
Tuesday: Determine the density of water. Link to handout
Thursday: Finish water lab. Determine the density of ice.
Monday: Discussion - What do we know about water in the world.
Tuesday: Density Review sheet . (This copy is missing some important pictures that are hand drawn on the in-class version.) Link to handout.
