Applied Science Unit 1: Atoms

The first unit that the students completed was: Atoms. 

The students had to be able to identify the parts of an atom:

1.) Electron: negatively charged: located in electron cloud

2.) Neutron: neutrally charged: located in nucleus

3.) Proton: positively charged: located in nucleus.

As well as, being able to identify the atomic mass and atomic number using the Periodic Table of Elements. All students did a great job being able to recognize where the elements are located in the Periodic Table. 

The students also had to describe the properties of objects such as this peach. They were able to describe things using: color, size, texture and weight.

We participated in a few Scavenger Hunts regarding elements which the students seemed to enjoy. Overall, the students did a great job. Congratulate them on their hard work!
