Date: _2/3/14___

School : _Chateaugay Central School Subject: Science-Mechanical Energy Grade Level: __8th___

Unit/Lesson Title/Number: Mechanical Energy Lesson #2 Kinetic and Potential Context and Class Profile 8th Period- 6 IEPs, 22 students 9th Period- 4 IEPs, 19 students

Common Core Standards

Assessed: 4.1d Different forms of energy include heat, light, electrical, mechanical, sound, nuclear, and chemical. Energy is transformed in many ways. 4.1e Energy can be considered to be either kinetic energy, which is the energy of motion, or potential energy, which depends on relative position

Interdisciplinary Connections

Part of Physical Science

21st Century Skills

Reason Effectively: Students will have to use reasoning to analyze the different forms of energy in the activity. 1. Students will be able to define mechanical energy. 2. Students will be able to differentiate between kinetic and potential energy.

Procedure Teacher input, development, instructional method(s), modeling, guided practice, independent practice, and/or activities Label: Bell Ringer Also may be called: set induction, anticipatory set, introduction/review, Do Now, Write Now, Silent Starter Label: Transitions Label: visual, auditory, and kinesthetic Accommodations for learning modalities

The students will get out there workbooks and open to the previous nights homework The teacher will go around and check the homework, giving credit to those who have completed it. The teacher will put the homework on the overhead and the class will discuss the answers. The teacher will use the class responses to gauge student understanding of the material (CFU-material). After each question on the homework has been reviewed, the teacher will ask if there are any questions that need to be clarified. Each student should have written the correct answer in their workbook if their answer had been wrong and those who did not have their homework should have written the answers down. The teacher will then explain the worksheet that the class will work on. The students will be allowed to talk quietly while working on the worksheet. They will be defining kinetic and potential energy and classifying different objects as having kinetic, potential, or both types of energy. When they are complete with the worksheet they will hand it in to the teacher.

Label: Checks for Understanding: directions, procedures/routines, and/or content (formative) Label: Evidence of Cognitive Student Engagement (CSE) Label: Closure

The teacher will ask the students to repeat the directions before handing out the worksheet (CFU-directions). While the students are working, the teacher should be circulating and helping any students who need assistance. Closure: When the students are finished with the worksheet, they should hand it to the teacher and they will be given a short exit slip. They should complete this exit slip before class ends. Those students who do not complete the worksheet before class ends will need to finish it for homework.

Assessment/ Evaluation
Label formative or summative, describe purpose, and provide grading/feedback method.

1. Homework (formative) - the homework will not be collected but the teacher will use the class discussion based on the homework to determine whether there is material that needs to be retaught. Feedback will be given verbally as the class discusses. 2. Worksheet (formative) - the worksheet will give students practice with differentiating between kinetic and potential energy. They will be collected and given written feedback.

Technology SmartBoard
Describe type and purpose. Include a back-up plan.

Academic Language required for the lesson

Students will need to recall what kinetic and potential energy are.

Accommodations, Student Supports, and/or Interactions with Co-Teachers and/or Support Staff Resources/ Materials Time Required Homework overhead, kinetic/potential worksheets
