Tuesday & Wednesday:

3D Atom using Bohr Diagram – This 3D atom model activity is an engaging way to teach atomic structure. Students will learn how to collect element data and use the information to design a 3D atom model. Each 3D model consists of four Bohr models glued together.

Thursday & Friday: We will dive further into our unit by learning about elements, molecules, and compounds.

By the end of the lesson, students should be able to:

• Recognize that atoms and molecules are too small to be seen.
• Identify examples of elements, compounds, molecules, and diatomic molecules.
• Describe how the properties of a compound are different from the properties of the elements that form the compound.
• Draw atomic diagrams of elements, compounds, and diatomic molecules.
• Build models of elements, compounds, and diatomic molecules.
