ESSENTIAL QUESTION: How did the atomic theory develop?
RELEVANCE: Why do science facts keep changing?
NGSSS: SC.912.P.8.3; MAFS.912.N-Q.1.1; LAFS.910.WHST.1
LEARNING OBJECTIVES: Students will be able to:
-Compare and contrast the varying atomic theories of the past.
-Justify why the atomic theory has changed over time.
-Set up the experimental plots for the project to determine how pH affects plant growth.
BELL RINGER: Write to explain why you think the atomic theory has changed over time.
VOCABULARY: theory, law
HOME LEARNING: HL 1 Flow chart of development of the atomic theory
AGENDA
WHOLE GROUP
The bell ringer was to write to explain why you think the atomic theory has changed over time.
Students received HL 1. The flow chart should include the person who discovered the theory, the year of the discovery, and a drawing of the atomic model proposed by that scientist. flow chart should be done in time sequential order from the earliest theory to the modern theory. You can find the handout below.
Us this to make a flow chart on the progress of the atomic theory. Write darkly. I will make a copy and return the original.
Students then completed a gallery walk of the atomic theory, completing the handout. You can find the handout and the station cards below.
Use these handouts to record your notes from the gallery walk.
These six stations are to recorded in your notes. Be sure to answer the questions asked with information from the correct station.
