First, with a Chemistry book that is hopefully at your station, define the following a) Element b) Compound c) Mixture
 * Act One (Entry Task)**

Afterwards, please note you will be given six things in a plastic bag (copper wire, chalk, salt, granite, water in a vial, wax). For each of the following, construct a data table and tell me if it an element, compound, or a mixture, and tell me WHY!

We will discuss the data table on the board. Who agrees and who disagrees.
 * Act Two (Anticipatory Set, Modelling, Demonstration)**

I will lead discussion, what are ionic compounds. Metal and non-metal. Electrons are transferred. Things like that.
 * Act Three (Lecture/Notes/Reading)**

I will lead discussion on how to balance ionic compounds. Criss cross, unless even.
 * Act Four (Lecture/Notes/Reading)**

They will get a worksheet or questions to do about naming and balancing ionic compounds.
 * Act Five: (Guided Practice)Act Six: (Independent Practice/Closure)**

Meanwhile, I can pass back their test on the quarter final.

We will go over the worksheet.
 * Act Six (Independent Practice/Closure)**
