Class 2

Daily Objectives:  (1)  Prepare students for lab activities; (2) Introduce chemistry and demonstrate  with wet chemicals (to wet their appetite!)

Lesson:  (1) Do inventory for lab benches.  Students use a shared Google Doc, make their own copy, then check their inventory in their lab bench to make sure they have all the equipment.  (2) Students exchange their chemistry book for a thinner version in the library.  (D block did this; F block needs to do this still.)  (3)  Begin teaching about "Chemistry." Define chemistry as "studying the characteristics and interactions, of material and energy."  Explain we study matter for: (a) interest, (b) practical application (technology), and (c) for safety.
