Atom Rules!

First of all, finish the worksheets you were given in class [What Is an Atom A-1]  Do as much as you can; ask your mom or older sibling for help if needed; anything left over we can do in class.  25 pts.

Then, if you have not already done so, watch How Small Is an Atom?  and draw one or more cartoon illustrations from the video with a caption explaining.  ["If every atom in a grapefruit were the size of a blueberry, the grapefruit would be the size of the Earth."] This goes in your lab journal. You may draw more than one.  5 pts. each.

Do the regular: watch the movie, fill in the worksheets, take the quiz, and read the FYI, which I think is pretty interesting.  (I do really like science history.)  5 pts. each, 30 pts. all.

Lastly,for extra credit,  a 7-minute video about hydrogen, the simplest atom, by my favorite mad scientists at the University of Nottingham (is that where Robin Hood went to school???):
Periodic Table of the Elements: Hydrogen  5 pts.

>>>And OBSERVE, OBSERVE, OBSERVE... and record your observations...YOUR SLOWLY DETERIORATING  PUMPKINS!!!  (sorry I forgot to get the microscopes out -- I will have one on Monday to look at samples.)
