I. Objectives:
 At the end of the lesson, the students are expected to:
a. review that objects may attract or repel each other;
b. infer that objects may carry positive and negative charges;
c. infer that subatomic particle contributes to the mass of the atom;
d. locate the atomic number in a periodic table;
e. identify the subatomic particles associated with mass number;
f. determine the number of neutrons from the mass number.

I. Subject Matter:
 Lesson: Atom
 References: Grade 8 LM, TG, Science book
 Materials: Visual aids, activity sheets

II. Lesson Development:

Learning Activities
Motivation
Review their previous knowledge about magnets. Like ends or poles repel, unlike ends or poles attract. Electric
charges (simply charges), either positive charge or negative charge, behave similarly, that is, like charges repel or push
away each other and unlike charges attract or pull toward each other. Let them know that they must keep this in their
mind as they do the activity.

A. ACTIVITY

 The students will perform …

Activity 1 – “Charge” it to experience!
Activity 2 – The big difference
Activity 3 – What’s in a number?

B. ANALYSIS

1. What makes up an atom?

2. How do these components differ from each other?
3. How are these components arranged inside the atom?

C. ABSTRACTION

D. APPLICATION
Activity 1 – “Charge” it to experience!
