August 17 Thank you for not chewing gum  Today’s Agenda: Objective: Materials: Pencil, ruler, science notebook, science folder, metric lab packet, metric systems challenge worksheets, flipbook, reflection sheet. August 17 Today’s Agenda: Bell work Temperature lab Work on books Objective: Today we will practice predicting and measuring temperature. Daily Question: Predict the outcome for each of these situations: 1. Mixing more hot water with cold water. 2. Mixing more cold water with hot water. 3. Mixing equal amounts of hot and cold water.

Measuring Temperature – Thermometer Temperature is a measure of the kinetic energy of molecules. Temperature Scales Since we're going to be talking about heat, temperatures, and energy, we wanted to introduce you to how temperature is measured. The big three are Fahrenheit, Celsius and Kelvin. Even though scientists may use only a few scales to measure temperature, there are dozens of types of devices that measure temperatures. All of these devices are called thermometers because they measure temperature. There are thermometers to measure your body temperature, the temperature in your oven, and even the temperature of liquid oxygen. The Rankine temperature scale uses the same size degree as Fahrenheit, but has its zero set to absolute zero. To convert from Fahrenheit to Rankine, add 459.67 to the Fahrenheit reading. http://www.neok12.com/php/watch.php?v=zX537a725b5b736706674206&t=Heat-Temperature

Procedure: Follow written directions & Complete the data table Go back to your seats and INDIVIDUALLY answer questions 1,1,2,3 Work on your metric measurement book – use the rubric and information from the packet.

Temperature Lab Work on Flip book when done

Students will be able to measure using the metric system SCORE 4.0 IN ADDITION TO SCORE 3.0 YOU ARE ABLE TO GO ABOVE AND BEYOND BY APPLYING WHAT YOU KNOW ABOUT THE METRIC SYSTEM. YOU CAN TEACH ANOTHER STUDENT ABOUT THE METRIC SYSTEM. SCORE 3.0 YOU UNDERSTAND HOW TO MEASURE USING THE METRIC SYSTEM. SCORE 2.0 WITH NO HELP YOU HAVE A PARTIAL UNDERSTANDING OF HOW TO MEASURE USING THE METRIC SYSTEM. SCORE 1.0 WITH HELP YOU MAY HAVE A PARTIAL UNDERSTANDING OF HOW TO MEASURE USING THE METRIC SYSTEM. SCORE 0.0 EVEN WITH HELP YOU ARE NOT ABLE TO MEASURE USING THE METRIC SYSTEM.
