Modeling Using Elements from Nature
Description
You will be making basic visual representations of each atomic model using elements from nature. Without the proper technology to illustrate their points, scientists would have looked to other means of demonstrating their research. You will have to come up with a model of what each scientist might have used to show off their models.
You will have to create a model with sticks and stones; just don't break your bones.
Procedure
1. Using your basic understand of each atomic model and the discoveries of each, you will be in charge of creating a model to demonstrate how each model changed over time. You will need to create a model for each: Dalton, Thompson, Rutherford, Bohr, and Einstein.
2. Conference with the teacher after you have completed this Conference Form.
3. Collect materials from around the school grounds that you can use as different parts of the atoms.
4. Build and present your 5 models while comparing and contrasting them to each other.
5. Take pictures of your models and upload them (as per class instructions), Remember, you MUST save the file with your class and name (eg. Pd1 - Joe Blow).
6. As a group, write a short blog post including your activity notes and thoughts about the activity process.
