If you are using the scientific method
what part comes after asking a
question?
If you could change one thing about
your method for the bubble lab what
would it be?


Lab safety- be responsible in the lab
◦ No aprons, goggles or closed toe shoes are
necessary
◦ Share the different wands

Get into lab groups you had yesterday

Today’s Goal:
◦ Complete the lab and questions





What problem is this experiment
investigating?
What was tested?
What was your control?
What did your data show?
What are some sources of error in this lab?
◦ How could you minimize the error?


What could have caused the inconsistent
results?
Was your hypothesis correct or incorrect?
Why?
Explain how the bubble lab uses all the steps
of the scientific method.

 How
can we demonstrate
ownership in lab?
1.
Think about the bubble lab and discuss the
following questions with your neighbor:
◦ How did you resolve any issues?
◦ What was it like to work together?
◦ Did you feel safe during the activity?
◦ How could this lab be improved?
Lets create our classes PRIDE Pact
 Other Questions to consider:
1.
2.
3.
How could technology be used appropriately
during this activity?
What kind of support do you want from your
teacher?
What kind of support do you want from your
lab mates?

You will be seated at your desk and working
on the warm-up when the bell rings
◦ There will be random warm-up quizzes


ALWAYS be prepared to take notes and
participate in labs
Students must ask for permission to leave the
classroom
◦ And use an agenda book even if its for water

You are expected to follow the Howard
County Code of Contact
◦ No Cell Phones or electronics (unless otherwise
noted) during class. Devices must be silent and out
of sight. (Not left on vibrate)
◦ No hats
◦ NO FOOD

You are expected to come prepared to class
◦
◦
◦
◦
Pen/Pencil
Notebook (or Folder) – your personal preference
Calculator (TI-30X recommended, NOT required)
Textbook will be passed out during the second
week of school
Grades will be posted on Aspen. Grades will be
rounded based on the county requirement. A
grade of an 89.49% is a B.
Exams
50%
Labs
30%
Classwork/Homework
20%


Accepted the next day at the beginning of
class for half-credit
You have ONE freebie late assignment
◦ Can only be homework however!

Any work handed in after one day will not be
accepted and will be given zero credit



Your responsible for making up work when
absent
For excused absences you will be given the
same number of days that you missed to
make up the work
Unexcused absences will result in not being
allowed to make up missing work
Students have one week to make up missed
exams and labs
Check the make up folder, ask your peers,
then ask me!

Lab safety is a priority in the chemistry
classroom
All students are required to sign the safety
contract
You MUST wear goggles and closed-toe
shoes to participate in lab.
Failing to follow rules will cause removal from
the lab and a zero on the assignment!



Available before and after school
Make prior arrangements with me
You can always e-mail me questions at night
and I will respond back
Students will be afforded redo opportunities on
assignments/assessments based upon the
overall class performance on those
assignments/assessments, but individual
students may discuss the possibility of a redo
with his/her teacher.
DO NOT ask to redo a test while taking a test

Write down one question you have about this
chemistry class (Policies, concerns,
something you want to learn) and place it on
Mr. Klotz’s desk.
