LESSON OUTLINE
5min Students complete the Do Now by answering the questions in their notebooks.
10min Students cut out Lewis Dot structures for Oxygen, Nitrogen, Hydrogen, and Carbon.
25-30min Paper model molecules. Students create, one at a time, the following molecules: H2O, CH4, O2, N2, CH2O, N2H2, C2H2, and CO2. Teacher offers suggestions, hints, and tips. Students hold up finished molecules to compare structures.
5min Teacher demonstrates how to draw simplified molecule structures using their paper model molecules as reference.
5min Students draw the simplified structures for their molecules on the Atoms, Bonds, & Molecules Handout.
5min Students share their answers on the board and the classroom verifies.
5min Students draw the simplified structures for H2O2 and C2H6 without making a paper model first on the Atoms, Bonds, & Molecules Handout.
5min Students share their answers on the board and the classroom verifies.
10min Student complete the handout by answering the questions on the back.
5min Class goes over the answers.
5min Collect materials. Clean up. Wrap up.

Dihydrogen Monoxide (DHMO) Article
LESSON OUTLINE
5min Students complete the Do Now.
10min Class reads the DHMO article and write a CER on banning the chemical. CERs are shared with class. (A=DHMO; B=Harmful Stuff; C=Ban/Illegal)
10min Teacher demonstrates how to name a molecule using prefixes and adding ‘ide’ at the end. Class names the following molecules: NH3, CO2, ClF, and H2O. Students complete the worksheet by naming all molecules.
10min Finish worksheet by completing doodle drawings and simplified forms (glued in notebook p56).
5min Class addresses banning dihydrogen monoxide again.

DN: In a chemical reaction, how do you know there was a colour change?
EQ: What are the signs of a chemical reaction?
LESSON OUTLINE
5min Students complete the Do Now.
15-20min Physical vs Chemical MiniPoster. Students pick 3 to Illustrate with color for each category. Divide the poster in half. Label the top of the left side ‘Physical Change’ and the right side ‘Chemical Change’ or ‘Chemical RXN.’ The less detail in your drawing the more labeling and explaining you will have to do.
Physical: (Same Atoms, Same Molecules) Melting, Freezing, Folding, Mixing, Sliced, Diced, Boiling.
Chemical: (Same Atoms, NEW Molecules) Signs include: Change in Smell, Formation of a Gas, Formation of a Solid, Change in Color, Change in Temp.
10min Formula Meaning MiniPoster. Students explain what the numbers mean in a formula as well as what not having a number means for H2O vs CH4 vs O2H2.
Example: H2O, The ‘H’ stands for Hydrogen, the ‘2’ means there are two Hydrogen, and the ‘O’ stands for only one Oxygen since there isn’t a number after.
