Wrap-up and Review (and even a chance at extra credit)
Congratulations on finishing this chapter in chemistry! Take advantage again of the valuable shared documents that we have created, especially this study guide
Ionic and covalent bonds are a part of our daily life- from the formation of DNA (covalent bonds) to adding salt (ionic) to your food to enhance the flavor. All of these processes are governed by very simple rules. Atoms must gain a full octet of electrons, and the sum of the charges must equal zero. This simple system shows the simplicity and elegance of creation, yet allows for massive diversity and endless possibilities. This knowledge not only gives you a glimpse at God's creation, it also allows you to use that same creativity to faithfully examine His creation and appreciate just how blessed you are!
I also want to give you a chance at this little easter egg if you have bothered to look this far in this wikispace....extra credit!
For 10 points of extra credit, take one of the day's topics and prepare a voicethread that serves as a review of that topic. Include at least 4 pictures or animations, 2 comments, and of course....your voice. Explore your options at voicethread.com and add your own flair to a unique product. I found the app to be easiest to use on my iPad, but you can be creative in your own way! Below is an example that I have done. Please consult me before you start. You do not have to use video. Good luck!
