Lesson Plan

Planned activities

 

 

-  Warm-up:

Aim: Create conditions to solve a learning problem

Form of work :  individual-paired-group

Organizing class for the lesson. Students are introduced with the lesson objectives.

 

- Actualization of knowledge

Atomic structure - 1

 

 

 

- Warm-up. Vocabulary “Word search” activity, where students  guess the key words of the Topic

 

 

Procedure:

 Identify the words as given in diagonal,  horisontal or in vertical lines

Answers (Key Words of the Lesson):

MATTER, ATOM, MASS, MOLECULE, ELEMENT, NEUTRON
NUCLEUS, PROTON, ELECTRON

- As a whole class discuss in class the previous knowledge on chemistry about atomic structure using KWL chart.


Atomic structure - 2

 

              Procedure:

In the first column, learners write what they have already learnt about the topic. In the second column, learners write questions about what they want to learn in the topic studied. When the topic is complete, learners can fill in the third column to specify what they have already learned.

 Atomic structure - 3

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

- The Stage of the New Topic:

Objective: to develop research and collaboration skills

Form of work : work in small group

- Co-operative learning:

 

Task for group work:

In 2 small groups students will try to model the atomic structure and create their own  model of atomic structure as independent scientists. Then they will draw a labeled diagram and describe the structure of different atomic models using the information from https://bilimland.kz/en/courses/physics-en.

Each group works on one of the worksheets, which includes some background information from https://bilimland.kz/en/courses/physics-en about the scientists, what they have discovered. They draw an atomic model according to the information given. 

Task for Group 1:  J.J.Thomsons

Thomson’s Model of Atomic Structure – 1899

1. Atoms composed of rings of negative electrons  and embedded in a sphere of positive charge (the plum pudding model).

2. The positive and negative charges balance to make the atom neutral.

3. The atom mass was determined with the nucleus.

4.  The electron mass was 1/1840 of the hydrogen mass, the lightest atom.

5.  There were 1840 electrons in a hydrogen atom.

What to DO:

1. Make a model or draw a diagram of JJ Thomson’s model of the atom.

2. What is the main difference in this model?

3. What advances in technology made it possible for Thomson to successfully complete his investigations?

Task for Group 2:  E. Rutherford

Rutherford’s Model of Atomic Theory

1. The atom consists mainly of space.

2. The atom mass is concentrated in the nucleus, which is a small core at the atom centre.

3. The nucleus has positive charges.

4. Electrons move around the nucleus like planets orbiting the sun.

5. The atom is neutral as it has the same number of positive charges and negatively charged electrons.

What to DO:

1. Make a model or draw a diagram of Rutherford‘s atom.

2. What was the main difference between Rutherford’s atom model and Thomson’s atom model?

3. Why did Rutherford carry out his experiments in the dark?

4. What evidence do you think lead Rutherford to conclude that the atom had a positively charged nucleus?

Atomic structure - 4

 

-Presentation of the students’ Model:

Teacher organises the whole group discussion. 

Students present  their understanding of the model, of how they have worked as a group and of what they have learnt. Presentation of various scientific models of atomic structures (Rutherford, Thomson). After their presentation students post their diagrams of atom models on the wall.

At the end, students synthesize all models of atomic structure and compare their models.

Atomic structure - 5

 

Students’ Posters From the Lesson

 

 

- After the presentation students will watch a video about atomic structure from

Atomic structure - 6

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

- Practical Part:  Virtual laboratory “Build an Atom”

Task: Students do the virtual laboratory work, applying their knowledge about the atomic structure

Atomic structure - 7                             Atomic structure - 8

- Stage “Reflection”

Aim :  analyze success in their aim achievement

Form of work: individual.

- Check the gained knowledge with the use of the Activity “True or False” and “Matching”.

Atomic structure - 9           Atomic structure - 10     

 

 Atomic structure - 11- Students’ Reflection:

 

Students reflect on the questions and fill in exit cards:

- One thing you have learnt today;

- One question for today;

- One fact from today

Students write their notes on the exit cards.

This approach helps teachers reflect on the lesson progress and prepare for the next lesson because the students identify questions they still have. It allows a teacher to organise his/her work to search for answers to questions.
