Commented [TH1]: This style of question encourages students to complete a full exploration of the sim and to articulate their findings, without needing the teacher to give instructions for each interaction. The teacher could ask students to share out their list with the class. Minimal (or no) instructor introduction is required before students begin the activity and sim exploration. 3.

53 Unit 2 Atomic Structure Big Idea: Atomic structure explains patterns in the behavior of elements and allows us to predict the chemical and physical behavior of a given element. The organization of elements on the periodic table reflects trends in both atomic structure and element properties. Essential Questions: 1) How do we know what an atom looks like if we can t see atoms? 2) Why are silver and gold used to make jewelry? 3) Why are chlorine and iodine used as disinfectants? 4) Why do we use helium to inflate balloons instead of hydrogen? Colorado Academic Standard: SC09-GR.HS-S.1-GLE.2 Matter has definite structure that determines characteristic physical and chemical properties. Evidence Outcomes: a) Develop, communicate, and justify an evidence-based scientific explanation supporting the current model of an atom. b) Use characteristic physical and chemical properties to develop predictions and supporting claims about elements positions on the periodic table. NGSS: Structure and Properties of Matter Performance Expectation: HS-PS1-1 Use the periodic table as a model to predict the relative properties of elements based on the patterns of electrons in the outermost energy level of atoms. Disciplinary Core Ideas: PS1.A: Structure and Properties of Matter Each atom has a charges substructure consisting of a nucleus, which is made of protons and neutrons, surrounded by electrons. The periodic table orders elements horizontally by the number of protons in the atom s nucleus and places those with similar chemical properties in columns. The repeating patterns of this table reflect patters of outer electron states. PS2.B: Types of Interactions Attraction and repulsion between electric charges at the atomic scale explain the structure, properties, and transformations of matter, as well as the contact forces between material objects. Science and Engineering Practices: Developing and Using Models Use a model to predict the relationships between systems or between components of a system. Crosscutting Concepts: Patterns Different patterns may be observed at each of the scales at which a system is studied and can provide evidence for causality in explanations of phenomena. Hanson, A.J

54 Motion and Stability: Forces and Interactions Performance Expectation: HS-PS2-4 Use mathematical representations of Newton s Law of Gravitation and Coulomb s Law to describe and predict the gravitational and electrostatic forces between objects. Disciplinary Core Ideas: PS2.B Types of Interactions Newton s law of universal gravitation and Coulomb s law provide the mathematical models to describe and predict the effects of gravitational and electrostatic forces between distant objects. Forces at a distance are explained by fields (gravitational, electric, and magnetic) permeating space that can transfer energy through space. Magnets or electric currents cause magnetic fields; electric charges or changing magnetic fields cause electric fields. Science and Engineering Practices: Using Mathematics and Computational Thinking Use mathematical representations of phenomena to describe explanations. Crosscutting Concepts: Patterns Different patterns may be observed at each of the scales at which a system is studied and can provide evidence for causality in explanations of phenomena. Waves and Electromagnetic Radiation Performance Expectation: HS-PS4-1 Use mathematical representations to support a claim regarding relationships among the frequency, wavelength, and speed of waves traveling in various media. Disciplinary Core Ideas: PS4.A: Wave Properties The wavelength and frequency of a wave are related to one another by the speed of travel of the wave, which depends on the type of wave and the medium through which it is passing. Science and Engineering Practices: Using Mathematics and Computational Thinking Use mathematical representations of phenomena or design solutions to describe and/or support claims and/or explanations. Crosscutting Concepts: Cause and Effect Empirical evidence is required to differentiate between cause and correlations and make claims about specific causes and effects. Performance Expectation: HS-PS4-3 Evaluate the claims, evidence, and reasoning behind the idea that electromagnetic radiation can be described either by a wave model or a particle model, and that for some situations one model is more useful than the other. Disciplinary Core Ideas: PS4.B: Electromagnetic Radiation Electromagnetic radiation (e.g., radio, microwaves, light) can be modeled as a wave of changing electric and magnetic fields or as particles called photons. The wave model is useful for explaining many features of electromagnetic radiation, and the particle model explains other features. Hanson, A.J
