Today the Lab Safety Test & Lab Equipment Quiz were administered. We then continued our introduction/practice with the Cornell Note taking method, and modeled/practiced the use of flipped video content delivery. Tomorrow is the first lab "Bunsen Burner Mapping using a Thermocouple and the Seebeck Effect"...watch the prelab video (posted in EDpuzzle) and complete your prelab setup your lab notebook (Title, Purpose, Theory, Safety Precautions, Materials, Procedure, and setup a data table to record your observations/measurements).
Today students took Benchmark exam #1...a 50 multiple-choice question assessment that simulates very closely the type of test students will see next May on the 2018 AP Chemistry exam. Students will take this benchmark again in December, and one more time in April, as a way to guage their growth through the year.
For Tuesday:
Lots to cover today...first, wrap-up of lab equipment orientation and Bunsen Burner Introduction. See video below for a refresher on the parts of a Bunsen burner and how to operate it safely.
Tuesday will be the Lab Safety Test and the Lab Equipment Identification Test, as well as an opportunity to complete your Bunsen burner practical. If you would like to practice over the weekend, first download the ExamView Test Player Program using the link below, and also the Lab Equipment Review Question Pool Test Files...you may be asked to login to your Office365 account. Remember, it's your mounties.k12.pa.us email address to login:
Test Player Installers (Must install this first!) Lab Equipment Review Test File: Once downloaded, should be opened in the ExamView Test Player; presented in 10 question sets...fresh set each time you open the file. Lab notebooks were also distributed and a discussion of how to setup lab reports occurred. Please login to EDpuzzle to view the Lab Report Orientation video created by one of last year's AP Chemistry students. |
