Today and tomorrow you will be studying about how atoms are made and the Periodic Table which we use to classify the elements. To get started you need to read pages 506 to 524 in the Physical Science book. After that you need to do two things:
- Use some of the unlined paper provided by the sub and the drawing supplies to make a game that will teach another person in the class the following vocabulary words : Atom, Nucleus, Proton, Neutron, Electron, Quark, Atomic Number, Mass Number
Ideas for games could include a word search or crossword with clues, hangman game with clues, or a funny quiz. Make your game creative in some way. When you are done have the sub initial your game and then play it with another person in class. Turn the completed version of each game in to the inbox with the signature of the person who played it with you and the sub's initials.
- Your second assignment is to begin the lab on page 525 in the book.
See the following example for some ideas.
List:
- Sprite, Steak, Steamed Broccoli, Mashed Potatoes, Omlettes, Coffee, Pickles, Peach Pie....
Data Table (Remember this is only a sample. Yours needs to have at least 20 food items - extra credit for more - and at least 4 columns) :
| Food | Part of the Meal | Breakfast, Lunch or Dinner | Sweet or Savory |
| Sprite | Drink | Lunch or Dinner | Sweet |
| Steak | Main Course | Dinner | Savory |
| Steamed Broccoli | Side Dish | Dinner | Savory |

Remember to return my supplies to the front of the room at the beginning of class.
