- Description
-
Physical Science is designed to serve as a foundation for other high school courses, especially chemistry and physics. Physics units include Newton’s 3 laws of motion, forces, scientific definitions of work and power, momentum, conservation and conversions of energy, relationships between electricity and magnetism, and wave phenomena and behavior (including characteristics and calculations) including electromagnetic and sound waves. Chemistry units include composition and classification of matter, history of atomic structure up to present day model, learning the periodic table to include, but not limited to: all chemical symbols, patterns, trends and isotopes, chemical bonding, compound naming, and chemical reactions.

Due:
Create a slides similar to the one attached using your own characters for the reaction "Love Story" we went over in class.
Where I used Flintstones characters, you must pick your own characters from a movie, show, cartoon, book, etc. Your characters/pictures that you choose must be appropriate and make as much sense as possible.
Requirements:
-Title Slide
-Two slides per classification type
-One slide defining what occurs during the type of reaction and a real example of a balanced reaction that I DID NOT use in notes
-One slide of the characters you choose to represent the classification type
If you get stuck and cannot use the same set of characters to represent all five types like I showed you, you may choose a different set of characters to represent different classifications. Get creative!
Submit your slides here.
