Day 33 & 34 Physical and Chemical Properties of Matter

Students did a physical and chemical properties (sort) cut and paste in their notebooks.  I love these - so easy to tell if a student understands or not!  While we worked we listened to a Mr. Edmonds song.

Afterwards I had students close their notebooks and do a Kagan strategy - Give one Get one.
  1. Students make 4 columns on a piece of paper (2 columns are the "give one" the other 2 are the "get one"). 
  2. In the first "give one" column they list as many properties as they can remember.  In the 2nd "give one" column they list whether it is a physical or chemical property.
  3. After they finish they ask other students (stand up, hand up, pair up) to give one and they share one of theirs and move to the next student.  *I only allow students to share 1 answer each.
