Essential Question: How has
our knowledge of the atom
changed in recorded history?
Standard: SCSh7: Analyze
how scientific knowledge is
developed. SC3: Use the
modern atomic theory to
explain the characteristics of
atoms.
Objectives:
 Summative assessment of
student learning
Summative Assessment:
Unit One Test
Critical Reading:
1. List the first five words that
come to mind when someone
says ATOM.
2. Read “Matter: From
Democritus to Dalton” and
develop a flowchart. Minimum
5 boxes.
3. Read pages 56-67 of
textbook to add to the
flowchart.

Essential Question: What’s
wrong with Jimmy Neutron’s
model of the atom?
Standard: SC3a: Discriminate
between the relative size,
charge, and position of
protons, neutrons and
electrons in the atom. SC3c:
Explain the relationship of the
proton number to the
element’s identity. SC3d:
Explain the relationship of
isotopes to the relative
abundance of atoms of a
particular element.
Objectives:
 Review the basic structure
of the atom
 Understand the
significance of each
subatomic particle
