Choice Board
This activity is a practice and assessment exercise that allows for
differentiation and student choice. Students have been introduced to a
historic timeline of the development of the atomic model and have learned
about the atom as proposed by Bohr. The tic-tac-toe format requires all
students to practice and perform to demonstrate their understanding by
completing two assignments of choice plus one required assignment.
Assignments are chosen based on ability and learning style.

On chart paper, create a comparison of
the atomic structure for Hydrogen,
Carbon and Oxygen. Be sure each
structure is consistently labeled and large
enough to be seen when placed on the
wall of the classroom.
Using key components, write a poem or
rap that compares the atomic structures
of Carbon and Oxygen. The poem or rap
should have at least 4 stanzas and clearly
highlight similarities as well as
differences.
Using information from the periodic table,
create a magazine advertisement for an
element. Make sure to identify the
element using mass number and atomic
number and relate it to the number of
protons, neutrons and electrons. The
advertisement should be no bigger than 8
x 11 (standard copy paper) and use color.
Using the information from the periodic
table, create a short video about
elements. Be sure to identify the element
using mass number and atomic number
and relate it to the number of protons,
neutrons and electrons. The video should
last at least 1 min 30 sec. Upload it to
YouTube and share the link with me via
email or post it on Collaboration
space(One Note)
Create a 10-question quiz about an
element key from the periodic table.
Include at least atomic mass, element
symbol,atomic number,
electrons,protons, and neutrons. Include
an answer key.
Create a 3-d model of an atom. If you
choose this asst., you must let your
teacher know which element you are
creating.
Create flashcards for each of the first 20
elements in the periodic table.
Create a one page ‘job-ad’ or riddle for a
chosen element.
Create a Children book/ Comic strip
to explain the following: Atomic number,
protons, neutrons, electrons, average
atomic mass, mass number and model of
the atom
