Teaching Outlines
Concept #1 Early Atomic Models
Learning objectives
- Understanding of the atom evolved as experiments demonstrated results
- Current accepted model of atom rests on principles of quantum theory
- It is important to remember that atoms are not circles; though we use circles to represent
Notes for teachers
These are short notes that the teacher wants to share about the concept, any locally relevant information, specific instructions on what kind of methodology used and common misconceptions/mistakes.

Concept #2 - Electrons occupy different energy levels in an atom
Learning objectives
- Electrons are distributed in an atim
- They occupy different levels based on energy
- There are parameters that define what levels an electron can occupy
Notes for teachers
It is important that students do not think of the electrons as "orbiting" the nucleus like the planets around the Sun.
