Understanding the Structure of Atoms

Funded Aug 11, 2023

My students loved being able to see the different atomic structures of elements with the magnetic bohr model boards. We used them to review for our test. The students were in groups of 3 and had to compete against each other. It was a really fun and engaging activity. I could see them begin to really understand the process of finding protons, neutrons, and electrons. They started gaining confidence in what they were doing and would correct each other if someone got an answer wrong. I think this really helped my students on their "structure of an atom and Bohr models" test. The average score was an 88. It was by far the most successful test yet.”
