Goals/Objectives:
6.E.2.3 Explain how the formation of soil is
related to the parent rock type and the
environment in which it develops.

How do I show what I know about erosion
weathering and soil?
Do Now:
Get and graded assignment and clear off your
desk to prepare for assessment
6.P.2.1 Recognize that all matter is made up of
atoms and atoms of the same element are all alike,
but are different from the atoms of other elements.
Essential Question(s):
Analyze what makes up matter.
AIM (Lesson Steps):
AIM (Lesson Steps):
1. Collect graded homework assignment
2. Complete test weathering and erosion.
1. Do Now
2. Inquiry Investigation- Activity 1.7 “How can
you separate a mixture of salt and pepper?
Students will be given bags of salt and pepper
mixed together. They will be asked to come up
with ways it can be separated. this is supposed
to spurn thinking on the properties of salt and
pepper.
3. Reading Essentials p 259 -264
Students will be using these pages to complete
an outline for the section. They can then use
this outline to form Cornell Notes.

After the students take a few minutes to
answer these three questions they will compare
their answers with their partners.
4. Frayer Models
In class we will do the first vocabulary word,
atom, together. Students will also ensure that
they copy the definition part of each model
before leaving class.

Assessment:
Homework:
Construct Frayer models of: atom; electron; law
of conservation of matter; matter; neutron;
nucleus; proton

We will discuss in depth the meaning of
symbols and numbers in the Periodic
Table.
Essential Question(s):

2. Friday Five
3.. Review homework
4. Atomic Model Cookie Lab
Students will be assigned a element on the Periodic
Table and will create the atomic model using cookies,
cherry and chocolate chips, vanilla icing and sprinkles.
This is demonstrates not only that the student can
use the information on the Periodic Table but also
they understand the makeup of an atomic model.
