ENGAGE (Get the students minds focused on the topic)

1.(Presenting example/instances of the lesson) NOTE:
ENGAGE (3min) ( BELL WORK ) Approaches
Activity A applied is
1. Talk to people around you and write down anything they know about atoms.
Collaborative
2..Do not be shy about any idea!
3. Draw an atom how you imagine it (1 min.) and Guided
Questions: (Unistructural) Inquiry
4. What did you feel during the activity? based)
5. Do atom has mass?
6. Do atom has sub-atomic particles?

Objective will presented and the topic of the day.

2. Discussing New concepts and practicing new skill #1

Activity-B-The students are given a hand out.Label the three sub atomic particles of
atom and give the number of proton,electron and neutron.

1.What are the three sub-atomic

particles of atom? Unistructural

2. What is positive, negative in an atom? Unistructural

3. How to get the number of proton in an atom of the element? What about the number
of electron and neutron? Relational
4. What is the charge of proton? Electron? and neutron? Multistuctural

EXPLAIN (Teach Concept. Include interaction between teacher and student)

Atom is the smallest unit/particle of an element that retains (keeps)
properties of that element.
Atom has a positive nucleus surrounded by a cloud of negative electrons.
Most of the volume of atom is an empty space where electrons are moving.
Protons, neutrons and electrons are subatomic particles.

A single atom is said to be electrically neutral if its number of electrons(e-) is

equal to the number of protons (p+). Thus, the atomic number (Z) of an
element also specifies the number of electrons in neutral atom.
Mathematically, for a neutral atom, Z = p+ = e-. Notice the atomic structure
in Figure 6 on the next page. Do they have equal number of protons and
electrons?
The number of protons is equal to the atomic number (Z) of an element.
Atomic # (Z) = # protons

1. Can an atom be destroyed?Unistructural

 Atoms cannot be subdivided, created, or destroyed.
2. How important is the atom in our daily life?Multistructural
Atoms are important because they lay down the structure of all the
matter present around us. Without atoms, the existence of
molecules, elements, and matter is not possible.
3. Why is it impossible to destroy atoms? Extended Adstract
According to the law of conservation of energy, the matter cannot be
created nor be destroyed. Hence, an atom cannot be destroyed and it
cannot be broken into smaller particles. The atoms mainly consist of
three primary particles and that is electron, proton, and neutron.
EVALUATE
Atoms consist of three basic particles: protons, electrons, and neutrons. The
nucleus (center) of the atom contains the protons (positively charged) and
the neutrons (no charge). The outermost regions of the atom are called
electron shells and contain the electrons (negatively charged). Atoms have
different properties based on the arrangement and number of their basic
particles.
Multiple choice. Write the letter of the correct answer.
1. Which two particles make up the nucleus of an atom?Unistructural
A. Protons and Electrons B. Protons and Neutrons
C. Molecules and Compounds D. Neutrons and Electrons
2. What is the number of protons equal to in a particular atom?Unistructural
A. The number of electrons. B. The number of neutrons.
C. The number of molecules. D. The number of nuclei.
3. Which subatomic particles of atom is negatively charged?Unistructural
A. electron B. neutron C. positron D. proton

For question 4 and 5 refer to the decoding atom information above. Multistructural

4. Which of each element in the periodic table is assigned as a number called the
atomic number?
A. the number of protons in each atom of that element.
B. the number of protons and neutrons in each atom of that element.
C. the number of neutrons in each atom of that element.
D. the number of protons plus the number of electrons electrons in each
atom of that element.

5.An atom contains 11 protons and 12 neutrons in its nucleus. Multistructural

Which of the following statements is/are correct?
 (i) This atom has an atomic number of 12.
(ii) Its mass number is 23.
