Log into the escape room link to see if you enter the correct codes to go to the next level. At the end, write down your completion code on your answer sheet, scan it and turn in just the answer sheet.
2)Ionic bonding practice ws- for each problem, write the the atomic symbol down, the # of valence of electrons and then draw the lewis dot structure for each one. We will work on the bonding part of it next week.
3) DE board: Week 9 ionic bonding

Special Note: Next week class (9/14) will be asynchronous- No in person class. I will post videos to watch on how to complete the rest of the bonding basics ws and how to finish the Ionic bonding ws.

Remember, there is no synchronous classes today for science classes. You will work on your own. If you have questions, send an email. I might not get back to you till Monday, I will be in southern Texas and there is very poor wifi down there.

We will pick up where we left off last week, watch the video- bonding basics, ionic bonds. As you watch the video, continue filling out your student note page. You need to understand how to do lewis dot structures in order to draw ionic bonds. If you need help with lewis dot structures, I have attached a video on how to do them.
Homework:
Complete the Ionic bonding practice worksheet. There is a video to help explain how to fill in this worksheet.

Remember to get all your late-work/make-up work turned in. I will start taking points off for late work starting third quarter.

Welcome to Inventions and Engineering.

This year in science, the most important thing you will be learning is how to communicate. It is very important to scientists to be able to record data accurately, using detail. They also need to be able to record their ideas and conclusions accurately. I will be expecting you to answer questions completely, using complete sentences and lots of details.

Let's spend some time checking out your De techbook. Let me know if you can not log into it.
Log in to the DE techbook. There is a link for it in the resources tab under your classwork in google classroom. There will be an assignment (a board) that will review the different parts of DE. Please take a moment to review it.



Homework: All homework will be assigned on Wednesdays and will be due the following Wednesday.
