General Chemistry: Jimmy Neutron

Decent Essays
Jimmy Neutron completed his KWL chart in five minutes. The only section of the chart that was completed was the first section. Jimmy is gifted and is savvy with the sciences, so he knows most of the concepts associated with General Chemistry. When I am meeting each group of students, I realize that Jimmy does not have anything written in his second section of the chart. In order for Jimmy to learn from the lab, I will conduct extra research or meet with a local college instructor, and I will provide Jimmy an advanced version of the procedure that includes greater detail and theory dissection. For example, how can elements and substances have distinct Specific Heat Capacity values? I will allow Jimmy some extra time to complete the second section

    The heat capacity is the ability for the container to retain the heat the is produced or absorbed without allowing for the outside environment to impact the reaction. This closed system allows for easy calculations where q_rxn+q_water+q_calorimeter=0. This is important to the lab that the total heat lost and gained must all equal zero. It would be hard to calculate how much heat was lost in the world by the experiment, so isolating the system to the calorimeter allows for the…

    The Atomic Model

    Scientists believe that stars are made of mostly gas, and this gas is made up of many atoms. In the star, the atoms in the gas bang into each other and give off different light depending on the type of atoms. This light from stars enables scientists to figure out the type and amount of atoms they are made of. Knowing the composition of the stars, we can guess how they were formed. Therefore we can see that stars are just atoms (hydrogen) hitting each other producing light.…

    My gut sank to an unbearable low as I watched my thirty-two-year-old mother require support to limp just five steps to the restroom; cancer stripped her of life. At twelve-years-old, I felt distraught in my inability to save her and return the endless love that my Haitian parents poured into my nurturing. However, the hope the physicians brought us has inspired me to become a doctor so that I, too, can serve as an envoy of hope to sufferers of illness. My father is a physician I strive to be like.

Briefly describe the instructional goals that formed the basis of your interaction with ‘your’ ELL student(s), as well as each learning activity that served as the vehicle for meeting those goals. Note whether ELL students were participating in the same learning activity as their non-ELL peers, or if they were working on an ‘adapted’ activity. My goal for the interaction with the ELL student was to help Ville to participate more with the group by having him complete the second day’s reading and written homework using sentence frames and a Think Aloud approach with me as his partner to help him better comprehend the reading.…

    It was back and forth for a while. My guidance counselor would call me down to his office to discuss the idea that my high school was going to cut the AP chemistry class for the following year and I had to pick a new science class for my junior year. When I asked why he told me that there were only eleven people signed up for the class and that they wanted fifteen to keep it open. To be fair it was understandable that most people would not want to sign up. Many found honors chemistry to be incredibly difficult and would be happy to be rid of it once they finished their final in June.…

    Reflection on Book Title “The Leader, The Teacher & You” I share the same sentiment with the author that “Walk the ground!” is essential for a leader to earn respect from the ground. Walking the ground also requires social competency skills such as being able to “communicate to influence” and having “interpersonal effectiveness”. In future, I will apply this principle of “Walk the ground!” by constantly engaging my superiors, peers and subordinates for their guidance and opinions through cohesion and feedback sessions on how various tasks can be done more effectively and efficiently. Through these sessions, I will seek to understand their concerns and challenges in their area of work.…
