- 1. Agenda: April 17/18th, 20131) Warm-up (10 min)2) Create
CHONPS foldable (10 min)3) Set up notebook (5 min)4) C-Notes:
Introduction to Macromolecules (20min)5) Exit slip (5 min)
2. Warm-upIn your notebook: List what you already know
aboutcarbohydrates, lipids, proteins, and nucleic acids (where are
they found? What do they look like? Why are they important?)
Discuss with your group. Carbs: Lipids:Proteins:Nucleic Acids:You
will receive a stamp at the end of this warm-up. 3. FoldableCreate
a 6-layer foldable and label the 6 sections:Carbon, Hydrogen,
Oxygen, Nitrogen,Phosphorus, and Sulfur. These are the 6 mostcommon
elements in organic chemistry. Duringthe notes you will write in
which macromoleculeseach are found. 4. Set up C- NotesTopic:
Introduction to MacromoleculesObjective: Students know the
characteristics ofeach of the 4 macromolecules 5. Copy all notes in
green into your notes 6.

12. Exit Slip Tear out a sheet of paper and list 3 things
youlearned today. Turn in your sheet to the bucketOn Friday you
will have a lab where you will test whether the 4 macromolecules
are present in foods.
