What I'd like you to do this week is find out about the chemical changes that effect a woman's body when she is pregnant. Find out what chemicals change in the body, and what their function is. BE SPECIFIC.
Okay, I don't have a blog again this week. This Values and Choices program doesn't lend itself to the blog since it has a lot of sensitive stuff. SO, this week I want you to post your best science jokes that have something to do with chemistry or physics! BUT, you can't just put the joke up, you also need to explain why it is funny. ...this should be good.
This week, as we transition to our Values and Choices, I don't have a fitting topic for the week. So, you can all help me out, but coming up with questions that are appropriate for posting about our program. Ultimately the program is about Honesty, Responsibility, Respect, Self-Control, Promise-Keeping, Equality, and Social Justice. If you can't come up with a topic for discussion, how about sharing a story where one of these values was upheld, ...or shot down?
We've studied all of these subjects this year. As preparation for reviewing the test go online, try sciencedaily.com, and pick an new astronomy discovery and then describe how and where forces, chemistry and density are involved.
We have begun our research into where all the chemistry is happening in the solar system. Now find out about the type of elements and molecules, and their distribution in our galaxy! You can also use this space for questions on the chemistry of your part of the solar system.
I want you to look around the house and find the absolute worst and best foods you and your family eat. You MUST include the nutritional facts that make it the best/worst.
Next week we have a lab that involves these laws I've mentioned. No I haven't spoken yet about these laws. What I would like the first person to do is to post these laws written in your own words. Everyone that follows should post examples of these laws from real life.
Most people are aware that using the terms acids and bases are a common ways to describe solutions, but there are other qualities that can describe solutions as well. Do a little bit of research and explain to us other general ways to describe solutions.
Take a look around on the internet and give me some of YOUR explanations of what an acid and a base is. ZERO credit if you just post someone else's work here. Read, interpret, and write in your own words. I'd really like to hear about what kid of ions are involved.
When atoms bond, or come together to form molecules, it's all about electrons. This week see if you can come up with atoms that will bond with each other in perfect pairs. In other words, which one atom will combine with another one atom.
You need to know the material on Wednesday/Thursday to answer the question so sit tight. |
This blog is for you...Feel free to share some curious train of thought you have, as well as share your thoughts on others. Archives
