Atomic History

  1. In groups of 3, read the Scientist worksheet and answer the questions together.
  2. Construct a model of the atom based on what your Scientist believed the atom looked like. Prepare to present your model and explain it the class. You may use anything/one in the class room as long as it be returned to its original location in it’s original shape.                          a.) What does your model need to look like?                                                                                                                                                                      b.) Brainstorm ways to create your model.                                                                                                                                                                          c.) Build your model                                                                                                                                                                                                                 d.) Create a presentation                                                                                                                                                                                                          e.) Practice your presentation
  3. Create a timeline with the names of all 5 Scientists on it. As the groups present, add a drawing of the atom of each Scientist.
