Custom: NV Bio Unit 1 Aligned Cluster

NY Biology Regents - NGSS

This cluster assignment targets similar concepts and NGSS standards as Unit 1 from the New Visions Biology curriculum.

Custom: PS1.A Structure and Properties of Matter

NY 8th Grade Science ILS

This assignment covers the intersection of PS1.A with these 3 evidence statements: PS Statement #1 - Identifying substances based on their chemical and physical properties, and investigating if a chemical reaction or physical change occurs when substances are mixed PS Statement #2 - Describing the changes that occur to a substance when thermal energy is added or removed, and developing a device that optimizes either the absorption or release of thermal energy (strong alignment) PS Statement #3 - Modeling the atomic structure of substances, and investigating the conservation of mass in chemical reactions (strong alignment)

PS1.A: Structure & Properties of Matter

Question 1

Matter exists in different states that can be distinguished by their physical properties. When thermal energy is added to or removed from a substance, changes in the arrangement and motion of particles can occur.

Identify the phase change shown in the model above.

• melting

• melt

Question 2

The diagram below shows a model of the atomic structure of a substance.

Which statement correctly describes what this model represents?

• A pure element composed of a single type of atom

• A mixture where different elements are physically combined but not chemically bonded

• A compound where different types of atoms are chemically bonded in a regular pattern

• A gas where atoms move freely with large spaces between them

🔄 Step 2: Personalize Review — Automatically

Podsie builds a personalized review deck for each student

Completed assignment questions are added to each student's review deck. Review sessions adapt to focus where students need the most support.

The free program Podsie dramatically increased both engagement and results of my high school students using the evidence-backed techniques of retrieval practice and spaced repetition. The average grade improved from 21% below to 38% above national standards.

D.P., Science Teacher

Podsie has helped reduce my workload as a teacher! The making of many paper copies has gone, it is very quick to check pupils and their progress, in much more detail as well.

Michael R, Math Teacher

I love the fact that the 'spaced practice' aspect of Podsie is supported by cognitive research. Podsie has been an amazing way for my students to study all of the details they need to know, while also challenging them to expand their ways of thinking.
