particle the parts of atom (A) and
identify the given
description (B)
G. Discussion (Explore):
Picture analysis. (Self-discovery)
H. Developing Mastery (Explain):

Guide Questions:
1. What is your observation on the
picture provided?
2. How does the atomic number,

number of protons and number
of electrons are related?
3. How can we get the number

of neutron for a certain element
(atom)?
I. Generalization (Elaborate):
Expound the this Idea “Sub atomic particle of a certain atom is enough to
represent its element”
J. Assessment (Evaluate):
Learners are tasked to complete the table by missing value of given element and
after completing the table, learners should defend their answer of why they’ve
come-up with that answer.

K. Agreement (Extend):
1. Using the concept that was gathered on
the lesson learners are tasked to create a
poem that contains the details about atom,
subatomic particle and there
representation to a certain element.
2. Please refer on the picture on the left.

Guide Question:
1. What is Isotopes?
2. How the number of neutron does affects a certain element?
Picture analysis. (Self-discovery)
Learners will be given time max of 5 min. to
analyze the picture.

Guide Questions:
1. Based on the picture provided, how will
you then define Neutral atoms and Ions? IONS
2. When ions exist?
3. Then what is the difference between
Cation and Anion?
Learners are tasked to defend the concept of “Ions gives rise to compounds”

F. Motivation (Engage):
Class will be group into 2 each group will represent a certain element and they will
portray an atomic model this includes subatomic particles, and they will just follow
series of instructions.
I.
1. Learners orbiting the nucleus should remove 1 person and transferred to
another group.
2. Receiving group make a record of the numbers received, same with the group
that removes 1 person.
II.
1. Learners needs to change the element they will be portraying.
2. Repeat I. 1 and 2 steps.
Guide Question:
1. What your observations on the activity.
2. What subatomic particle was observed that changed its numbers?
3. As an atom lose or gains an electron, will it affect the other subatomic particles?
Why?
the specific value of each
subatomic particle based
on the given element.
c. shows appreciation by
presenting the concept of
Anions and Cations
creations in a creative
way
Guide Question:
1. When do we call ion to be anion? How
about cation?
2. Why does anion has negative sign if it
gains electrons? And positive sign for
cations if it loses electron?

Defend the rule using the image that was
presented below the rule.
“How does lose and gain of electron makes a certain element stable?”
In concise yet creative way present the information of How Anions and Cations
was formed.
