Model, Theory and Method

Great job in class on the demonstrations!  You presented very well, and as an audience you were genuinely supportive and encouraging.  Explanations, if not perfectly complete, gave us something to think about and deepened our understanding of our natural world.  Bravo!

Thursday we will have a few more demos and a review of  "the Story So Far..." before we go on to the next topic, but we will continue using the kinetic model a lot as we study chemistry.  It is foundational.

Homeworks for Tuesday & Wednesday is a general study of science- Models, Theory and Method.

1. Modeling the Unseen, from the World of Chemistry series.




 you will need to click on the VOD button for #4 probably twice    

2.  What is a Scientific Theory?  Take notes in your SJ.


3. The Story of Fred, read & summarize in your SJs, and illustrate if you like (remember, every page in your sjs shoud have an illustration or word-art to highlight the major concepts.)
