IV. PROCEDURES
Teacher's Activity Students' Activity
A. Elicit
1. Review I have here some words on the board about the topic last time. The students will participate in the class.
Match it with the corresponding charges.
proton neutral
proton neutral
electron positively charge
electron positively charge
neutron negatively charge neutron negatively charge
2. Word Drill
There are some scrambled words on the board. Arranged those
words and recite it orally.
ngaevite
negative
nruteal
neutral
msas
mass
craghe
charge
necuuls
nucleus
psiitvoe
positive
Now altogether read the words.
B. Engage
I have here a picture of avocado let’s compare it in an atom.
1. Motivation Describe the picture, what does the seed represent in a structure of
an atom?
As an atom, the seed is the nucleus.

Now,
Outside the seed or the nucleus.
Where can you find the electron?
Inside the seed or the nucleus.
Where can you find the proton and neutron?
2. Presentation Today, we will study the atoms subatomic particle.
C. Explore
Activity You will be performing an activity now, so open your book on
page 195. You will be doing this with the same group. Just follow
the procedure and answer the questions that follows.
Write your answers on a 1 whole sheet of paper individually.
Do you follow? Yes ma’am.

Subatomic particle Charge Mass, Location in the
(symbol) grams Atom
Electrons (e-) -1 9.109 x Outside nucleus
10-28
Protons (p+) +1 1.672 x Nucleus
10-24
Neutrons (n0) 0 1.675 x Nucleus
10-24
Activity 2 “The big difference”
Objectives:
After performing this activity, you should be able to:
1. compare the masses of the subatomic particles using
different ways of
visual representation
2. infer which subatomic particle contributes to the mass of
the atom
Materials Needed:
pencil/pen
crayons or colored pencils
Procedure:
1. Refer to the masses of the subatomic particles in Table 2.
Arrange the subatomic particles in increasing mass.
Q1. Which subatomic particle is the lightest?

Q2. Which subatomic particle is the heaviest?
Q3. Which subatomic particles have almost the same mass?
2. Show a comparison of the masses of the three subatomic

particles using a bar graph. Refer to Figure 2 in the next page,
assuming that the first bar represents the mass of the proton; draw
the bars to represent the masses of the neutron and the electron.
Take note that the masses are expressed in the -28 exponent.
3. This time, using a pie chart, show the proportion of the masses
of the subatomic particles for an atom composed of only 1 proton,
1 neutron and 1electron.
4. A seesaw can show a comparison between two masses of an
object. A seesaw goes up and down depending on the mass it
carries on each side.
Q4. How does the mass of the neutron compare with the mass of
the proton? Using circles to represent the particles show the
comparison by drawing a seesaw with the particles on it.
Q5. How many electrons should be placed on one side of the
seesaw to balance it if the other side has 1 proton on it, like the
one shown below? Write the number on the space provided in the
illustration below.
5. Take a look again at the different visual representations you

have made.
Q6. Which subatomic particle/s make/s up most of the mass of the

atom?
D. Explain
1. Discussion Subatomic particles are the particles found inside the atom.
Okay class, what are the subatomic particles of an atom? Proton, Electron, and Neutron Ma’am.
Correct!
Electron has the lightest mass which is 9.109x10-28g and it can be

found outside the nucleus.
What is the electron doing outside the nucleus? It is orbiting Ma’am.
Correct!
Neutron has the heaviest mass among the three, having

1.675x10-24g but it is almost the same with the Proton having
1.672x10-24g. Neutron and proton can be found inside the nucleus
of an atom.
E. Elaboration
1. Which subatomic particle is the lightest? 1. Electron

2. Which subatomic particle is the heaviest? 2. Neutron
3. Which subatomic particles have almost the same mass? 3. Neutron and Proton
F. Evaluation Class, get ½ crosswise and answer the following on the board.
You are given 10 minutes to answer it.
Subatomic particle Charge Mass, Location in the

(symbol) grams Atom
Electrons (e-) 1. 4. 7.
Protons (p+) 2. 5. 8.
Neutrons (n0) 3. 6. 9.
Time’s up! Please pass your paper to the center aisle and pass it
forward.
G. Extend
Assignment: I have here on the board your assignment, please copy it on your
notebook and write your answers on a ½ crosswise. Pass it next
meeting.
1. What contribute the most to the mass of an atom?

2. What are the other terms called for proton and neutron?
3. What are the different propose model in studying atom?
