I can now tell you the how many valence electrons families 1,2, 13-18 have. I am developing my understanding of how this relates to oxidation numbers. Homework - complete worksheet
8th Grade - I now understand how covalent molecules bond and what properties they have. Homework - read pages 58-61 in the Interactions book to solidify the major "need to knows".
6th Grade - We identified variables that might affect the outcome of our Pop Pop Fizz Oh What a Relief It Is experiment. Clear here to access the shared Google Document . Homework - Write detailed instructions on how to make a PB and Jelly sandwich for Thursday's activity.
