2. Atomic Structure and the Periodic Table



  • Key Topics:
    • Structure of the atom (protons, neutrons, electrons)
    • Atomic number, mass number, isotopes
    • Periodic table organization: groups, periods, and trends
  • Activities:
    • Build atom models using kits or digital tools
    • Periodic table scavenger hunt (explore properties and trends)
  • Assessment: Diagram-based assessment on atomic structure
