Developing a Presentation of a Scientist from the Atomic Theory Timeline Using Scratch (Atomic Theory Lesson Part II)
This lesson could be a Part II for the 3D modeling atomic theory lesson using Tinkercad, or this lesson can be delivered independently. In this lesson students fill out an atomic theory timeline and then do their own independent research as well as use Scratch coding to rd present about an atomic theory scientist of their choosing.

Students learn about atomic theory and the scientists that theorized new atomic models from experiments they conducted. Students then create a 3D model for each advancement in the theory timeline
Students observe particle movement for solids, liquids, and gases. They then write Pseudocode for coding particle behavior and then they code particle movement on Scratch for the three states/phases
Students will investigate the properties of different types of matter and apply the concept of "P1: Matter" to design, model, and 3D print an object using a MakerBot 3D printer. Hands-On STEM Design
