Abstract Teaching content of the “inorganic non-metallic materials” in high school chemistry is relatively insignificant, and the popular science teaching is disadvantage for students to construct big ideas. Therefore, it’s of great significance to reconstruct the teaching design, which is based on subject understanding theory. Perspectives and cognitive thinking were extracted from the requirement of curriculum standard in this research, the functions of theme competencies extracted from the silicate structure and the utilization history of silicon, and targeted teaching design was provided based on the theme big ideas. The design ideas and content highlight the perspectives of structures and elements, and the design purpose points to the students’ development of scientific attitude and social responsibility competency, and give play to the educational function of chemistry subject.
