3. Tuesday, September 15 th Entry Task Please take the next few minutes to review/study all of the lab safety information in preparation for your quiz ;) This will be the first thing I will enter into your grade book so make sure you are 100%prepared. Schedule: Science Lab Safety POP Quiz Scientific Method Homework: Scientific method foldable Objective: I can learn what science is and what the steps to the scientific method are Please have on your desk: Science Notebook Signatures if I did not check yesterday

4. NASA: Survival on the Moon Carefully read the directions to the activity On the left side of your notebook (page 12), write a question that you are trying to answer in this activity. EX: What materials/equipment will best help a space crew travel 200 miles on the moon to rendezvous with their mother ship?

5. NASA: Survival on the Moon Complete the “Your Ranking” section only On the left side (page 12), write a 1 sentence hypothesis that explains which item you chose as # 1(most important). REMEMBER: If….then…because

6. NASA: Survival on the Moon Agree on a Group order of Most important to Least important items and number 1-15. Compare Group order to NASA order and determine Error Points for each item

7. Thursday, September 17 th Entry Task The process of doing science is the scientific method. There are many parts to the scientific method. List what you think they are in the order you think they are. (hint, you did a couple on page 12 yesterday) Schedule: Scientific method Book Check Out Understanding Energy 3.1 Homework: Finish Scientific Method Foldable Take book home and keep at home Finish reading assigned pages and complete chart Objective: I can list and explain the 2 different general types of energy. Please have on your desk: NASA Exercise Worksheet

8. ITEM NASA REASONING NASA RANK Box of Matches No oxygen on the moon: worthless 15 Food Concentrate Efficient means of energy 4 50ft Nylon rope Useful in scaling cliffs, tying injured together, etc. 6 Parachute silk Sun protection 8 Portable heating unit Not needed unless on dark side of the moon 13 Two.45Cal Pistols Possible means of propulsion 11 One case of dehydrated milk Bulkier duplication of food concentrate 12

9. Two 100lb oxygen tanks Most pressing survival need 1 Stellar Map Primary means of navigation 3 Self-inflating life raft Co2 bottle in raft may be used for propulsion 9 Magnetic Compass Magnetic field on moon not polarized: useless 14 20 Liters Water Replacement for tremendous liquid loss on light side of moon 2 Signal Flares Distress signal when mother ship is located 10 First-aid kit with injection needles Needles fit special aperture in space suits 7 Solar-powered FM 2- way radio For communication with mother ship, but FM requires line-of-sight transmission, short range 5

10. NASA: Survival on the Moon Figure out your error points –Find the difference between your ranking and NASA ranking Ex: Box of matches- your ranking is 10 and NASA is 15 the difference would be 5. So your error point would be 5

11. NASA: Survival on the Moon Add up all Error Points Error Point Analysis –0-20 = Survive –21-30 = Likely to Survive/mild harm –31-45 = Not Likely to Survive/severe harm –46+ = Did Not Survive

12. NASA: Survival on the Moon On The left side of notebook (page 12), write a 4 sentence Conclusion that includes the following: –Restate the Problem –Restate your original Hypothesis –Discuss how close your original hypothesis was to the actual answer (Use error pts in your writing)

13. Scientific Method Overview What is the scientific method? It is a process that is used to find answers to questions about the world around us.

14. Scientific Method Overview Is there only one “scientific method”? No, there are several versions of the scientific method. Some versions have more steps, while others may have only a few.

15. Scientific Method Overview However, they all begin with the identification of a problem or a question to be answered based on observations of the world around us and provide an organized method for conducting and analyzing an experiment.

16. Scientific Method Overview What is a hypothesis? It is an educated guess based on observations and your knowledge of the topic. What is data? It is information gathered during an experiment.

17. Scientific Method Overview Identify the Problem What do you want to know or explain? Use observations you have made to write a question that addresses the problem or topic you want to investigate.. Form a Hypothesis What do you think will happen? Predict the answer to your question or the outcome of the experiment.

18. Scientific Method Overview Create an Experiment How will you test your hypothesis? Develop a procedure for a reliable experiment and address safety rules. Conduct an Experiment Follow the steps in your procedure to perform your experiment. Record data and observations!

19. Scientific Method Overview Analyze the Data Is the data reliable? Does your data and observations from the experiment support your hypothesis? Communicate the Results (Conclusion) Write a conclusion that summarizes the important parts of your experiment and the results.

20. Scientific Method foldable Label the top flap with “Scientific Method” Label the remaining flaps –Problem/question –Hypothesis –Create experiment –Conduct experiment –Analyze data –Conclusion –Repeat Draw a picture for each part of the scientific method. LABEL and color picture. Glue on page 12 (do not cover work)

21. Energy Label Page 15 in your notebook “Understanding Types of Energy” Read page 71-72 Answer the following questions IQIA (include question in answer): 1.What is energy? 2.Give an example of energy and describe how it causes a change

22. 3.1 Understanding Energy Types Read pg 74-76. On page 15 Draw this chart and complete Energy TypePotentialKinetic Explanation Picture to represent

23. Friday, September 18 th Entry Task Label Page 15 in your notebook “Understanding Types of Energy” Read page 71-72 Answer the following questions IQIA (include question in answer): 1.What is energy? 2.Give an example of energy and describe how it causes a change Read pg 74-76. On page 15 Draw this chart and complete Schedule: 3.1 Energy Types and Forms Homework: Page 16 and 17 in notebook Objective: I can understand that the two types of energy exists in different forms Please have on your desk: Scientific method foldable Energy TypePotentialKinetic Explanation Picture to represent

24. Energy Does the picture below represent Kinetic or Potential Energy? Explain how you know.

25. Possible Answer Kinetic = Energy of Motion; Objects with Kinetic Energy must be moving; Skydivers are moving towards the earth Potential = Stored Energy (Due to position, shape or chemical make-up); Objects with Potential Energy can be moving or stationary; Skydivers are high above earth giving them PE due to position.

26. Examples of Potential and Kinetic Energy On page 14 of your notebook, list 5 examples of potential energy and 5 examples of kinetic energy Be ready to share and explain why you think each is potential or kinetic

27. Energy Forms Label Page 17 in your notebook “Energy Forms” While reading page 73 complete the table that is provided. Electrical energy is not in your book – Electrical energy is energy that's stored in charged particles within an electric field. Electric fields are simply areas surrounding a charged particle. –Electrical energy is transferred by an electrical circuit (ELECTRICITY)
