1. Semester 2

2. Visit my website BEFORE you ask me what you missed in class. If the absence is excused… – A HW assignment is due by the next class. – A quiz must be made up before the next class. – A test will be made up on the Tuesday following the test. If the absence is unexcused… 1.Don’t ditch my class. 2.You get a ZERO for the missing HW, quiz, test!

3. Time Issues – The weekly lab quiz will open Friday at 7:30 AM and close on Monday at 3:00PM. – Moodle quizzes will not be excused or retaken without SERIOUS extenuating circumstances Vocabulary – Vocabulary words will be assigned throughout the semester. – You will be graded based on how well you complete a vocabulary word! Log-In Issues – If you not sure about your log-in, ask! – USER NAME = first initial and last name – PASSWORD = student id # – If you need Moodle help, there is a review session after school on Thursday and Friday of this week ONLY!

4.  You are required to make a weekly post summarizing what we have completed at the end of each week.  This should be a thought out reflection with no spelling mistakes that lets me know that you know what happened in class.  This is also a resource for you to use if you missed class for whatever reason.  This is a weekly participation grade!

5.  In your seat ready to learn when the bell rings.  Prepared for class each day with all the materials that you need.  Pencil/pen, paper, notebook and calculator  On-task and not disruptive.  Respectful of classmates and the learning environment.

6. 1. Learning Goal a.Transition to Unit 3: Energy & the Hydrosphere b. Understand that there are certain physical properties of water that influence the movement of energy in the hydrosphere. 2. Homework a. Moodle Pre-Unit Assessment b. Moodle Glossary c. Blog sign-up 3. In-Class a. Physical Properties of Water

7. HydrosphereThe Sun Atmosphere

8.  First Law of Thermodynamics  Energy can not be created or destroyed;  Energy can be transferred between a system and its’ surroundings;  Energy can be accounted for in different forms.  Conservation Laws  Mass/Matter/Energy can not be created or destroyed

9.  Forms of Energy  Nuclear  Radiant  Thermal  Chemical  Mechanical  Potential  Kinetic  Electrical  States of Matter  Solid  Liquid  Gas Ways that energy travels – Convection – Conduction – Radiation

10.  Efficiency  Energy transfers are never 100% complete  The “lost” energy is accounted for as “waste” heat.  Calculating Efficiency Little #/big# *100

11.  H 2 O  It stands for  2 hydrogens (H 2 )  1 oxygen (O) http://www.rmi.org/images/article/4Kids_H2OMolecule.gif

12.  Water is an example of a polar molecule because, though it is not charged like an ion, its ends carry charges because of unequal electron sharing (+) (-) O H H Cl (-) Ion Polar Molecule

13.  Solid  Called ice  It is less dense because it has more volume than liquid water  It will float on liquid water

14.  Liquid  Called water  Most common form of water  All living things require it  Gas  Called water vapor  Very important to help monitor the earth’s temp  Energy is required to change H 2 O from a liquid to a gas

15.  The MOVEMENT of water molecules increases as TEMPERATURE increases. This motion breaks the COHESIVE BONDS between the molecules, and the water changes from a solid to a liquid to a gas.

16.  Amazingly water is the only substance on Earth that can be found in all three states of matter naturally.  Liquid water is the most abundant form
