This zip file contains materials for a middle school science lesson on the basics of atoms as part of a unit on the properties of matter. The unit was designed for 6th graders in NYC.

Includes:
PowerPoint lesson presentation (17 slides)
1 lesson plan
1 homework assignment
1 lab experiment worksheet

Presentations serve as lesson plans that guide the teacher through the entire lesson. Presentations include links to related YouTube videos to increase student engagement (I can help you use YouTube videos in your class, even if your network blocks such sites, just ask).

'Ask a question' if you need a SMARTboard file instead and I can probably re-upload an adjusted file quickly.
