bases
e. Determine whether common household substances are acidic, basic, Acid and base lab
or neutral.
Students will perform the activities outlined in the middle of the chart along with take notes in their interactive notebooks. It is students’ responsibility to keep up with notebook.
Element checks will include 3-6 multiple questions about the specific element worked on in that lesson, along with a performance based question. If students perform poorly on the
element checks, they will be allowed to turn in a key assignment (*) to replace the element grade and reflect mastery of the standard. There are 11 elements in this unit being assessed
so there will be 11 element checks. The dates will be posted in the classroom and on website. Grades will be in grade book and on this sheet for student assessment. Standards Quizzes
will also be given after each concept and a final exam will be given that covers all the elements at one time. Pretest are given but not graded. Any failing assignment will be redone at
lunch and learn.
