Curated OER
Relative Masses
Students investigate relative mass using 8 different items. In this relative masses lesson plan, students discuss as a class John Dalton's atomic theory. They take the masses of the 8 items and record their data. They discuss relative...

The Dalton Model
In this Dalton worksheet, learners read about John Dalton and his contributions to understanding the atom. Students are given sample data for Dalton's experiments and they answer questions about the data in his experiments.
Curated OER
Structure of the Atom
Students observe 3 models that show Dalton, Thomson and Rutherford's theories of the structure of the atom. In this structure of the atom lesson plan, students observe each model and write a summary of each theory of the atom.
Curated OER
Atomic Structure and Quantum Theory
Students are introduced to the structure of an atom and Dalton's atomic theory through a short video and mini-lecture. They also take a look at the weight of mass and become familiar with the idea of quantum theory
National Institute of Open Schooling
Atomic Structure
Learners explain historical findings such as Rutherford and Bohr's contributions, explain wave particle duality, and formulate Heinsenberg's uncertainty principle. They also draw s, p, and d orbitals, explain more historical findings,...
Chymist
Empirical Formula of a Compound
Because of the work of John Dalton, we are able to write formulas for compounds. The hands-on experiment has scholars prepare a compound from its elements. Using mass data, individuals write the empirical formula for the compound.
Curated OER
Subatomic Particles
In this atoms worksheet, students complete a graphic organizer comparing the properties of the 3 subatomic particles. Then students complete 1 short answer question.
Curated OER
Chemistry - Science 10
In this chemistry science learning exercise, students identify the parts of a chemical reactions. Students name the major particles of the atom. Students apply knowledge about the atom, theories, and models.
Curated OER
Integrating Technology: Seeing Atoms: STM
In this atom instructional activity, students learn about the scanning tunneling microscope and answer questions about its use, how it works and its ability to see electrons in atoms.
