Electromagnetism Day 1

Intro to Electricity

Objective:

What: SWBAT describe basic properties of electricity.

How: On an exit slip students will describe in words and pictures with a word bank how electricity flows and give an example of a situation where static electricity is building up with 80% accuracy.

Why: To be critical thinkers about the world around us we need to understand how electricity works within all the things that we use in everyday life.

Entropy Day 2 / QUIZ!

Objective

What: SWBAT describe examples of Entropy, and pass the physics quiz!

How: By answering questions and drawing examples of entropy on an exit slip with 80% accuracy, and answer the quiz questions correctly with 80% accuracy. 

Why: To be critical thinkers we must be able to apply what we learn about entropy to real life situations.

Agenda:

How does the formation of everything in the universe show that entropy is increasing?






Does entropy always increase when work is done or time passes?
