We extended our learning about acids and bases by learning and applying the Arrhenius and Bronsted-Lowry definitions via the Lesson 85 PowerPoint, the Lesson 85 worksheet, and the Acid-Base Solution Card sort activity. For homework, students were assigned textbook problems #1-8 from Lesson 85, provided to students in the form of a work packet for Lessons 85-87.
Note: While our intent is to complete the packet this week, we have the following scheduled interruptions and will adjust our timeline and learning goals accordingly:
- WCAS Science Exam (all 11th grade students) on Tuesday, June 4 and Wednesday, June 5. Students will test either during periods 1-3 or 4-6, with a schedule forthcoming.
- All 10th grade field trip on Wednesday, June 5.
- Pirate Mutiny on Friday, June 7, schedule forthcoming.
Keep Learning!
