    Research and investigate chemicals and chemical reactions to justify whether you believe a country should invest in nuclear energy. 


    Learning Intentions:

    1) Identify reactants and products in a chemical reaction

    2) Write simple word equations with the correct terminology to demonstrate your understanding of the reaction

    3) Extension: Balance chemical equations


    Activities:

    Practicals

    1) Chemical equations  (two reactions) - refer to Google Classroom for the template and follow-up activity


    Education Perfect

    1) Chemical reactions modules assigned

    Literacy

    1) Science articles - refer to Google Classroom 

    2) Chernobyl - we will begin to watch the miniseries


    FOCUS / ARONGA

    FOCUS / ARONGA learning intentions:

    • We are FOCUSING...on identifying and describing how chemicals react through experimentation to explain chemical disasters in society
    • We are FOCUSING... our learning by discussing the negative impacts chemical disasters in the community have on society to develop an understanding of how politics play a role in science
