KMT+Learning+Plan

Kinetic (Molecular) Theory (KMT) Learning Plan Use the kinetic molecular theory to describe and explain the properties of solids, liquids, and gases. || Students will understand that... __Chemistry __, Prentice Hall. (2008). Ch. 13 – States of Matter. || **Essential Question(s) **(What provocative questions will foster inquiry, understanding, and transfer of learning?)**:** __Chemistry __, Prentice Hall. (2008). Ch. 14 – The behavior of gases. || (What key knowledge and skills will students acquire as a result of this unit?) (What should they eventually be able to do as a result of such knowledge and skill?)
 * **Learning Outcomes ** ||
 * **Established Goal(s): **Select the appropriate content and technology standards to develop the big ideas and key knowledge/skills.
 * NJ State CCCS: 5.2.12.C.1 Physical Science **
 * **Understanding(s): **
 * “Particles in a gas are considered to be small, hard spheres with an insignificant volume. The motion of the particles in a gas is rapid, constant and random. All collisions between particles in a gas are perfectly elastic.
 * Gas pressure is the result of simultaneous collisions of billions of rapidly moving particles in a gas with an object.
 * The Kelvin temperature of a substance is directly proportional to the average kinetic energy of the particles of the substance.”
 * “Why are gases easier to compress than solids or liquids are?
 * What are the three (3) factors that affect gas pressure?
 * How are the pressure, volume, and temperature of a gas related?
 * <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 13px;">When is the combined gas law used to solve problems?
 * <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 13px;">What is needed to calculate the amount of gas in a sample at given conditions of volume, temperature, and pressure?
 * <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 13px;">Under what conditions are real gases most likely to differ from ideal gases?
 * <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 13px;">How is the total pressure of a mixture of gases related to the partial pressure of the component gases?
 * <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 13px;">How does the molar mass of a gas affect the rate at which the gases effuses or diffuses?”
 * **<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 13px;">Students will know... **
 * The relationship between pressure, volume, and temperature of a gas.
 * How to calculate pressure, volume, and temperature of a gases at given conditions for a gas.
 * How to create a Prezi. || **<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 13px;">Students will be able to... **
 * Calculate pressure, volume, and temperature of a gases at given conditions for a gas.
 * Create a mind-map/Prezi. ||
 * **<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 13px;">Outcomes: ** ||
 * **<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 13px;">Assessment Evidence ** ||
 * **<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 13px;">Performance Task(s): **

After reading the article, Technology Resources/Prezi at : []and viewing various Prezis answer the following questions: 1) What is Prezi? 2) What is the best browser for Prezi? 3) What equipment is needed for Prezi?
 * Through what authentic performance task(s) will students demonstrate the desired understandings?
 * By what criteria will “performances of understanding” be judged?
 * __Formative Assessment 1__**
 * __Formative Assessment 2__**
 * **Create a prezi account at** [|**Prezi.com/profile/signup**]


 * Set up your prezi account and send an email to your teacher (DaniMercier@paps.net) indicating three (3) aspects of Prezi you will include in your presentation.

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 13px;">[e.g. scale, placement (?), images, size, placement, text and path.]

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 13px;">Also answer what does the tool “gear” allow you to do? (What can you do with the tool “gear” in Prezi?


 * **Create a prezi account at** [|**Prezi.com/profile/signup**]


 * Submit Prezi link to class wikispaces page and/or email teacher at: DaniMercier@paps.net. || **<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 13px;">Other Evidence: **

1) Rubric and Peer Critique (see attachments) 2) Quiz ([] )
 * Through what other evidence (e.g. quizzes, tests, academic prompts, observations, homework, journals, etc.) will students demonstrate achievement of the desired results?
 * How will students reflect upon and self-assess their learning?

3) Students will self-assess their learning by completing self-reflection table/guidelines (See attachment.)

<span style="color: #333333; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS','sans-serif'; font-size: 12px;">(Answers to Formative Assessment 1: 1) <span style="font-family: 'Helvetica','sans-serif'; font-size: 12px;">Prezi <span style="color: #444444; font-family: 'Helvetica','sans-serif'; font-size: 12px;"> is a free, web-based tool designed to help individuals create Flash-based presentations which are nonlinear and dynamic. With a free Prezi account teachers and students can create their own independent presentations, or share via email and collaborate online in real time. Although Prezi works best in the Firefox browser, presentations can also be downloaded to play off line. 2) <span style="color: #444444; font-family: 'Helvetica','sans-serif'; font-size: 12px;">Prezi works best in the Firefox browser, (and) presentations can also be downloaded to play off line. 3) <span style="color: #444444; font-family: 'Helvetica','sans-serif'; font-size: 12px;">All you need to use Prezi is a computer connected to the internet an email address to set-up a free account. Go to <span style="font-family: 'Helvetica','sans-serif'; font-size: 12px;">Prezi <span style="color: #444444; font-family: 'Helvetica','sans-serif'; font-size: 12px;"> to set-up an account today.)

Student willcomplete and submit a Prezi to represent a mind map that includes a minimum of seven (7) vocabulary terms/components; four (4) pictures, flash animations or videos; and demonstrates use of appropriate English spelling, grammar and language. || ||
