Adopt an Element Project - 7th Grade

As we discussed in class, we are learning about atoms and elements.
To help you get familiar with some elements, we are starting the "Adopt an Element" Project. For this project, you will look through some different versions of the periodic table of the elements (on line or in books). As you get familiar with some of the elements, pick one you'd like to adopt.

Here are some online resources for the Periodic Table of the Elements:
Web Elements
Chemical Elements


Once your made your choice, you will make a poster using a new tool called "Glogster." Here's the link:
Glogster

We will ALL use the same account. The username is mrardito. The password is my last name. In the title of your Glog, put the element and your first name.

Have fun. Be creative. Learn cool things.
This poster is due next Tuesday, November 25th.
