Core Content Coaching

Purpose

To provide support for grade-level, unit content planning for the Periodic Table Unit

Resources for planning• Teacher Yearly Resource Document (or Yearly Itinerary)

• CRM 1: Introduction to Chemistry

• Blank Pacing Calendar

• 8th Grade1st Six Weeks Lessons: Periodic Table

• Computer with Internet Access

8.1A-B, 8.2B-C, 8.3A, 8.4A 8.5: Matter and energy. The student knows that matter is composed of atoms and has chemical and physical properties.

•8.5C: interpret the arrangement of the Periodic Table, including groups & periods, to explain how properties are used to classify elements.

Spiraled

8.5B: identify that protons determine an element’s identity & valence electrons determine its chemical properties, including reactivity.

6TH GRADE

6.6A compare metals, nonmetals, and metalloids using physical properties such as luster, conductivity, or malleability.

8TH GRADE

8.5C: interpret the arrangement of the Periodic Table, including groups & periods, to explain how properties are used to classify elements.

Chemistry

•Explain the use of chemical and physical properties in the historical development of the Periodic Table.

•Use the Periodic Table to identify and explain the properties of chemical families, including alkali metals, alkaline earth metals, halogens, noble gases, and transition metals.

•Use the Periodic Table to identify and explain periodic trends, including atomic and ionic radii, electronegativity, and ionization energy

•Express the arrangement of electrons in atoms through electron configurations and Lewis valence electron dot structures.

• Elements are organized on the Periodic Table based on their physical properties.

• Elements are classified as a metal, nonmetal or metalloid based on its physical properties.

• The similarities and differences of the physical properties of metals, nonmetals and metalloids.

• Density is calculated using mass and volume.

PRIOR LEARNING

Nonmetals•Poor conductors•Good Insulators•Brittle or Gaseous•Dull

Metals•Good conductors•Malleable•Ductile•Lustrous (shiny)

Metalloids•Share properties of both metals and nonmetals

Formative Assessment Reteach Opportunities

Higher level questions• “Research shows there’s a link between critical thinking skills and increased student achievement in the

classroom.” (Moore & Stanley, 2010)

• Higher level questions must be planned in order to be implemented effectively in the classroom.

• Levels of Questions

• Knowledge

• Comprehension

• Application

• Analysis

• Synthesis

• Evaluation

• Plan and provide a variety of questions at each level and build student knowledge and critical thinking by providing Higher Level Questions.

Lower Levels of questions

• Interactive Word Walls Article: http://learningcenter.nsta.org/files/ss1103_45.pdf

• “Word walls can be arranged on cupboard doors or classroom walls, or hung from the ceiling with wire and string.”

• “Maximum instructional potential and efficiency are achieved when interactive word-wall construction is aligned with lessons and students are allowed to participate in the process. As a result, walls are usually built over many days and are finished as a unit nears completion. Word walls support units and are changed or replaced as units change.”
