Week+4

=Welcome to Gateway to Technology - Magic of Electrons - Period 2=

Tech Plan for Week of January 24 - January 28 (Week 4)
This week we'll complete our first unit on the properties of Electricity as we investigate static and current electricity. We should move into our next unit on Electromotive force at the end of the week as we investigate electricity's capacity to do work. Electricity - Day 08 Static and Current Electricity || Day 14 Electricity - Day 09 Series and Parallel Circuits || Day 15

 * What is the main idea: ||^  ||^   ||^   ||^   ||^   ||
 * OBJECTIVE || Students will learn how electric charge can move or stand still. When it is still it is called static. When it is moving it is called current. Current can be created chemically using a metal, a metal oxide, and an electrolyte. || Students will learn that changes in the wiring configuration of power inputs and outputs can effect the volts and amps in a circuit. ||  ||   ||   ||
 * What students will learn: ||^  ||^   ||^   ||^   ||^   ||
 * ACTIVITY || After viewing a How Its Made Video on Batteries students will follow the procedures detailed in Activity 6.1.3 to generate a static charge using styrofoam cups and an electroscope. Then they will generate current using lemons. || After reviewing Acticity sheet 6.13 students will construct vinegar batteries which they will connect in both a series and parallel configuration. ||  ||   ||   ||
 * What students will do: ||^  ||^   ||^   ||^   ||^   ||
 * RESOURCES || Internet access to WMS-GTT-DAM. Copies of Activity Sheet 6.1.3 Static and Current Electricit. Activity 6.1.3 Lab Kit || Internet access to WMS-GTT-DAM.
 * What students will need: ||^  ||^   ||^   ||^   ||^   ||
 * ASSESSMENT || Students will be evaluated on the completeness and accuracy of their responses on Act 6.1.3 on a 5 pt performance rubric. || Students will be evaluated on the completeness and accuracy of their circuit builds on a 5 pt build rubric. ||  ||   ||   ||
 * How students will show they know: ||^  ||^   ||^   ||^   ||^   ||   ||
