All: Tonight you will begin work on your science research project (SRP). Your research group is your lab table.
Whoever you assigned to create the google doc should share it with the entire group and with me. Then, you should all start doing research.
Each person needs to add a project idea to the doc, which should fall under one of the categories listed below. Your project idea should include a testable question and at least 2 links to articles related to your idea/topic. This is your way of sharing your interests with your group and with me.
Each person will be graded individually.
1. Redox Fuel Cells(STEM)
2. Organic Compounds
3. Energy and Thermodynamics
4. Chemical Analysis
5. Food Analysis
6. Solutions and Electrolytics
7. Biofuel Extraction and Cell Creation
8. Effects of Pesticides on the Environment and Health
9. Solar Power
Section 4: Here is the Mythbusters video so you can finish your worksheet:
James Bond Exploding Pen - Mythbusters

All Sections: This webpage is going to be your key to success in chemistry. Everything you need, you can find here! You should check the website EVERYDAY! (In fact, bookmark it right now).
Your first assignment is to find an object in your house that you can measure in three different ways. What the heck does that mean??? Well, think of yourself, for example. You can tell someone how tall you are, how heavy you are, how much space you take up. Even though all of these things are descriptive of you, they would all be measured in very different ways.
Once you've chosen your object, write in your binder the following information*:
What is it?
Why did you choose it?
1st measurement and what instrument/method you used to obtain it.
2nd measurement and what instrument/method you used to obtain it.
3rd measurement and what instrument/method you used to obtain it.
*BUT WAIT, THERE'S A CATCH! At least two of you measuring tools must be 'non-traditional'! (no rulers, scales, etc)
**Make sure to include units and be as accurate as possible!
Also, don't forget,tomorrow you have to hand in your 'rules, requirements & rewards' input slip!
