Time Allotted for this Lesson: 3 x 70 minutes

Goal(s): Objective(s): NGSS MS-PS1-2: Analyze and interpret data Students Will Be Able To: on the properties of substances before and -Identify and use independent and dependent after the substances interact to determine if variables in self-designed experiment. a chemical reaction has occurred. -Construct a data table with appropriate Title & Units Science & Engineering Practices: Analyzing -Construct a graph that clearly represents data and Interpreting Data: Analyzing data in 6-8 collected. builds on K-5 and progresses to extending quantitative analysis to investigations, distinguishing between correlation and causation, and basic statistical techniques of data and error analysis. Analyze and interpret data to determine similarities and differences in findings Pre-Requisite Knowledge and/or Skills: A. Prior Knowledge: Know what a data table and graph are, B. Pre-Requisite Skills How to design a valid experiment Scientific Vocabulary (list the terms): Independent/dependent variables, solute, solvent, x-axis, y-axis Prep & Setup Set out supplies. Materials/Equipment/Supplies Technology

Beakers, graduated cylinders, hot Computer, projector. plates, hot pads, thermometers, stop watches, salt, sugar, water and vinegar. Procedure: Teacher Does. Procedure: Students Do.. Include safety Include safety Time Motivation/Hook/Engage: Motivation/Hook/ Engage: Pull up project guidelines and Students are engaged in discussion about information on the projector. Review vocabulary words and listen to instructions and 30 vocabulary words. Pre-assessment: guidelines for the lab activity. Students do premins Draw a graph from the data presented assessment. in a data table. Students are to wear goggles and aprons at all times when dealing with hot plates and vinegar. Teaching: Teaching: Go over pre-assessment and explain all Students will be actively involved in discussions 20 pieces of a graph, and data table that about graphs, data tables, independent/dependent mins are necessary when displaying data. variables, solutes and solvents. Explain the lab activity and how students are to proceed through the Western Oregon University Content Pedagogy Science 1

experiment. Lead discussion on what dependent/independent variables are and how they are observed in a lab. Discuss solutes/solvents and how the students should choose one of each to observe in their experiment. Group Application ( if applicable): Group Application ( if applicable):: Put students into groups of 2 and have Students will create a data table including all them create a data table for their lab necessary aspects as discussed for their lab experiment that includes all necessary experiment. aspects as discussed. Independent Application ( if Independent Application ( if applicable):: applicable): In pairs, students will carry out their lab Students will be sent to carry out their experiments. experiment. ** Note- group and independent application is not a linear progression even though it is laid out that way in the plan Closure: Closure: After students have collected all data in After students have collected all data in data data tables, each individual student will tables, each individual student will draw a graph draw a graph that clearly represents the that clearly represents the data taken. data taken.
