ATOMIC STRUCTURE: 5E MODEL CHEMISTRY UNIT

Product Details

Watch student engagement EXPLODE in your classroom with this new 5E-aligned unit!

What is the 5E model? The 5E model was developed by the Biological Sciences Curriculum Study (BSCS) and is an inquiry-based approach to science education designed to promote active learning through five phases: Engage, Explore, Explain, Elaborate, and Evaluate. This model helps students build a deep understanding of scientific concepts by encouraging them to connect new knowledge with prior experiences and become an active participant in the learning process. In essence, your students will learn science by doing science!

Reach all learners in your classroom using this research-supported instructional approach. This unit bundle includes everything you need to inspire, motivate, differentiate, scaffold, and assess your students in learning chemistry. This technology-infused bundle is perfect for 1:1 classrooms and flipped classrooms.

Included content:

Atomic theory
Atomic structure
Isotopes
Ions
Atomic mass
Introduction to the periodic table
Mass spectroscopy (H)

Standards addressed:

Performance Expectation: HS-PS1-1 - Use the periodic table as a model to predict the relative properties of elements based on the patterns of electrons in the outermost energy level of atoms

Disciplinary Core Ideas: PS1.A: Structure and Properties of Matter, PS2.B: Types of Interactions

Specific Science and Engineering Practices and Crosscutting Concepts are identified within each lesson in the teacher lesson planner.

Pre-requisite knowledge required:

This unit is designed to be the second unit in an on-level chemistry class. Ideally, your students would have working knowledge of the scientific process, classification of matter, and significant figures. Ability to solve simple algebraic equations, calculate percentages, and determine weighted averages is also necessary.

Included learning modalities and assessments:

(1) Phenomodeling™ Activity
(2) Guided-Inquiry Activities
(2) Lab Activities
(4) Learning Station Activities
Foldable
PowerPoint Slides {Editable}
Task Cards
Practice Worksheets
Formative Assessments: Google Forms™, Exit Tickets, Practice, Video Questions {Editable}
Summative Assessments {Editable}
Google™ Daily Agenda Slides for easier planning! (Just updated, October 2024)
Answer keys and grading suggestions for all activities and assessments
Teacher Lesson Planner: Pacing, Learning Objectives, NGSS-alignment, Teacher Tips/Prep, Assessments
Includes differentiated lessons and assessments for both college-prep and honors level chemistry.
Free updates forever!

Unit Duration: This unit takes approximately 2-2.5 weeks of instructional time for a traditional bell schedule. (Approximately 11-13, 50-minute periods or 6-6.5, 90-minute class periods. )

File Types: When you purchase this product, you will have access a zipped folder that contains various file types including: PDFs, Word, and PowerPoint files. External links to online resources are provided in the Teacher Lesson Planner.

FAQs:

1. Will this resource be included as part of a larger bundle? The short answer is: Yes! Like you, I am a full-time classroom chemistry teacher, so while the process of creating and uploading resources may be slower during the school year, I have projected the following timeline (barring any emergencies) for release of each bundle:

Ionic Compounds, October 2024
Covalent Compounds, November 2024
Intermolecular Forces, November 2024
Chemical Reactions, December 2024
The Mole, January 2024
Stoichiometry, January 2024
Solutions, February 2024
Thermochemistry, March 2025
Reaction Rates, April 2025
Equilibrium, May 2025

I am happy to submit a refund request for any purchases of the smaller bundles once you purchase the larger one. Just send me an email with your order number, and I will take care of the rest. msrazzchemclass@gmail.com

2. Can I use this bundle with other MsRazz resources? Absolutely! If you're not ready to completely dive into student-centered instruction, I would recommend buying the bundle and trying out a few resources from it. For example, instead of using my guided notes and PowerPoint lesson on ions, try my guided inquiry activity instead and see how it goes. Just be sure to read over the activity to ensure your students have the pre-requisite knowledge needed to be successful.

3. Is there a recommended textbook? No, not really. This bundle is designed to give your students plenty of practice with the necessary content and skills. However, I realize that some schools prefer a textbook to be available as an extra resource. Personally I use CK-12 as an extra resource for both college prep and honors-level chemistry.

4. Do I need special equipment/supplies to use this with my students? No! One of the best things about the 5E model is that students are actively engaged with outside of the classroom experiences, so many of the laboratory experiments and activities are done with household chemicals and equipment! The teacher lesson planner lays out exactly what you need and where most of these items can be purchased.

5. I am new to the 5E model, do you think I can implement this successfully? Absolutely! The teacher lesson planner walks you through each lesson and provides helpful teacher tips and suggestions for carrying out activities and assessments. If you have questions about the 5E model methodology, do not hesitate to email me. I am happy to help!

6. How is this resource different from the ones in your ENTIRE COLLEGE PREP CHEMISTRY BUNDLE ? This product uses a completely different methodology for instructional delivery. If you have been a long time follower of MsRazz ChemClass, you will see some exciting new twists on similar activities, but generally, this bundle features brand new learning experiences and assessments all wrapped into one student-centered curriculum. Unlike the ENTIRE CP bundle, this resource is one stop shopping as it also includes material to teach honors-level chemistry.
