WEDNESDAY - Minimum Day Review factoring for special cases and factoring completely THURSDAY ChemMatters debate Presentations on food topics 1-4 FRIDAY Organic chemistry quiz Presentations on food topics 5-7 MONDAY
Hour/hour: Lecture - Functional groups. Team time: Curation. Homework: Complete the following in your chemistry notebook after today's notes. For the 10 functional groups we learned in class today (alcohols, aldehydes, alkyl halides, amides, amines, carboxylic acids, esters, ethers, ketones, thiols), find an organic molecule that contains that group (and ideally does not contain other functional groups).
TUESDAY Hour/hour: Quadratics Team time: Curation Homework:
WEDNESDAY Khan Academy THURSDAY - School cancelled due to fires in SD County. FRIDAY 1. ChemMatters debate AM: Juan, Anna, Naidelyn, Marysol, Andres V. PM: Truman, Brandon, Pablo, Rafael U. 2. Review functional groups; Activity - Building organic molecules. 3. Documentary on molecular gastronomy. Homework: 1. Reflection to El Bulli. Write a one paragraph reflection to the documentary El Bulli: Cooking in Progress. Questions to think about (keep in mind that this is a documentary, which is non-fiction film and not reality TV food schlock!) - what did you think of the documentary? In what ways was it exciting, interesting, and/or engaging? What did you already know about cooking that was presented in the documentary? What did you learn? What does it make you want to know more about? 2. Read and take notes on "Bringing Chemistry to the Kitchen." As you read, make a chart that shows how each factor below contributes to the flavor of food (column 1: factor, column 2: effect on flavor). Smell Color Texture Natural Flavors Artificial Flavors Esters Make a list of terms you don't understand and questions that the article raises. 3. Prep for Monday's Socratic seminar. On Monday, we will have a Socratic seminar, using the Cooking in Progress documentary and "Bringing Chemistry to the Kitchen" article as reference texts. The driving question is, "How does cooking make chemistry come alive?" You will be expected to provide specific examples, drawing from both the reference texts and your personal experiences, as well as to discuss the relevant principles of science and chemistry. To prep for the Socratic seminar, write two Knowledge, Application, and Synthesis questions. 4. Khan Academy. Level 1 for the six factoring skills by Sunday at 11:59 pm. 5. Organic chemistry quiz next Wednesday!
Complete the following two sections in your chemistry notebook after today’s notes.
Vocabulary Define the following terms.
Questions and Problems
CHALLENGE (required) Structural isomers are compounds that have the same molecular formula but have different bonding arrangements (and hence structures). Draw the three structural isomers for the alkane with five carbon atoms. Homework
Reminders:
MONDAY
1) Intro to parabolas 2) PhET Virtual Pendulum Lab Homework 1) Find a good example of parabolas that is used in art or architecture. Try to find a picture that is straight on, not taken at an angle. Print the example as large as possible--a full sheet of paper is ideal. Bring three copies of the printout and graph paper to class tomorrow. 2) Open the PhET pendulum simulator. Complete your assigned experiment (#1 Varying Mass or #2 Varying Length) of the Pendulum Lab. Make sure you complete the data table and answer the question for your experiment. Make the following changes to your lab: Experiment #1: Varying Mass
