2.ENDURING Understanding:
I am able to identify that elements on the
periodic table are organized into groups based on
similar properties.
3. EXPLANATION
DO NOW #7 ATOMS
BRAINPOP ATOMS VIDEO
4.EXPLORATON Activity 1 Inquiry
Problem: Which elements on the periodic table
conduct electricity?
Hypothesis: _____________________________
Materials: sulfur, copper, carbon, aluminum,
vinegar, HCl, distilled water, salt, baking soda,
sugar, and Gatorade, batteries, wires, and bulb.
Procedure: Use the circuit as a conductivity tester
for solid objects. Get materials from your teacher
to test. Predict whether each item will conduct
electricity. Then, touch the two wire ends to a test
object to see if the circuit is completed. How will
you know if an item is a conductor or an insulator?
