Grade 9 Lesson Plan- Atomic Structure

The document outlines a 4-day lesson plan for a 9th-grade chemistry class focused on atomic structure, aiming to help students understand atoms as the building blocks of matter. Specific objectives include defining key terms, identifying sub-atomic particles, and using Bohr's model to describe atomic structure. The lesson incorporates interactive discussions, visual aids, and hands-on activities to engage students and assess their understanding through drawing and concept mapping.

Teacher’s Name: Markayla Ramsay

Subject: Chemistry

Grade: 9

Title: Atomic Structure

Date: April 15-19, 2024

Duration: 4*40 minutes

General Objective:

o Upon completion of this week’s lesson, students should develop an

understanding of term atoms and atomic structure as well as explain its

organization and appreciate atoms as the building blocks of matter.

Specific Objectives:

o Define the terms: (i) atoms, (ii) atomic number, (iii) mass number.

o Identify and differentiate between the sub-atomic particles in terms of

position, relative mass and relative charge.

o Describe the structure of an atom using Bohr’s 2-D model.

o List elements 1-20 of the periodic table.

o Deduce an element’s atomic number and calculate the mass number of

specific element when prompted or presented with the periodic table.

Methodology: Demonstrative Learning, Critical Thinking, Deductive Reasoning, Problem

Solving, Interactive Discussion, Question and Answer

Material: Visual Illustration, Periodic Table, Whiteboard, Markers


Key Vocabulary: Atom, Nucleus, Proton, Electron, Neutrons, Mass Number, Periodic Table

Engage: Begin lesson by asking students what they recall about matter from grade 7 or 8.

Then teacher will briefly explain that everything that contain matter is made of atoms, even

humans. Students will also be expose to the language origin of atom and its meaning (Latin)

Explore: Using Bohr’s model, a 2-D model of an atom (Carbon) will be drawn on the board

using different colour markers. The teacher will explain the structure of the atom by

identifying the position of the nucleus and orbitals and where within the atoms they can find

protons, neutrons and electrons.

Explain: Teacher will encourage independence among student by imploring them to use their

critical thinking and deductive reasoning skills to determine which of the sub-atomic particles

are positively, negatively and neutrally charged. Using the copy of the periodic table students

will learn a commonly used mnemonics to recall the order of the first 20 elements. Students

will also learn deduce an element’s proton and mass number and use both information to

deduce the number of neutrons in an element.

Elaborate: Students will be asked to draw 2-D models of the first 20 elements of the using

different colour materials to identify the proton, neutrons and electrons table using the model

drawn by the teacher as a reference

Evaluation: Students will be asked to draw 2-D diagrams any of first 20 elements of the

periodic table to show the arrangement of the sub-atomic particles. Students will also be

given a copy of the concept map below to complete.
