Atomic Structure & the Development of Atomic Theory Project-Based Learning Activity is a project-based learning activity for high school Chemistry (grades 9–12) on Atomic Structure & the Development of Atomic Theory.

Pairs with: Atomic Structure & the Development of Atomic Theory Slide Show Presentation; Atomic Structure & the Development of Atomic Theory Guided Notes; Atomic Structure & the Development of Atomic Theory Lesson Quiz; Atomic Structure & the Development of Atomic Theory Vocabulary Words & Definitions.

Sections: Chemistry Project Based Learning Activities • Chapter 04; Chemistry Project Based Learning • Chapter 04; Project Station #1; Technical Vocabulary Matching; Learning Objective & STEM Challenge Target; Investigation Protocol & Directions; Station 1: Technical Vocabulary Term Cards (cut Out); Term #1. Sample item: “Why does Atomic Layer Deposition (ALD) achieve superior conformality compared to Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD)?”

What's inside: Project Based Learning Activity (editable .pptx + PDF, 30 slides); answer key / model answers for the teacher.

Standards: HS-PS1-1 — Use the periodic table as a model to predict the relative properties of elements based on the patterns of electrons in the outermost energy level of atoms. HS-PS1-8 — Develop models to illustrate the changes in the composition of the nucleus of the atom and the energy released during the processes of fission, fusion, and radioactive decay.

Resource type: Project-Based Learning Activity. Format: editable Microsoft PowerPoint file plus a ready-to-print PDF.

Classroom use: Students work through the project stations over several class periods, ending with a product they present. Built for high school Chemistry, grades 9–12.

Format note: These files are delivered in Microsoft Office formats (Word and/or PowerPoint). If you open a worksheet that includes tables in Apple Pages or another non-Microsoft app, table formatting may not display correctly. For best results, use Microsoft Word or PowerPoint (or upload the file to Google Docs). If you run into any formatting issues, contact us and we can send a PDF version.
