1st Verse:
They’re tiny and they’re
teeny,
Much smaller than a beany,
They never can be seeny,
The Atoms Family.
Chorus
2nd Verse:
Together they make gases,
And liquids like molasses,
And all the solid masses,
The Atoms Family
Chorus
3rd Verse:
Neutrons can be found,
Where protons hang around;
Electrons they surround
The Atoms Family.
Chorus
Chorus:
They are so small.
(Snap, snap)
They’re round like a ball.
(Snap, snap)
They make up the air.
They’re everywhere.
Can’t see them at all.
(Snap, snap)

THE NUCLEUS
Small – has almost no mass
 There
are 2 main locations in an
atom:
1.
Nucleus (contains protons and neutrons)
Heaviest part of an atom. So the mass number is the
sum of the protons and neutrons.
2. Electron cloud (contains electrons)
1st energy level can hold 2 electrons.
2nd energy level can hold 8 electrons
3rd energy level can hold 8 electrons.
