The Periodic Table

We have began our study into the Periodic Table.  We discovered today that the Periodic Table is organised into periods (horizontally) and groups (vertically).  Together, we are gaining a better understanding of natural and synthetic elements, and how an atom is made up of protons (+ charge), neutrons (neutral) and electrons (- charge).

Tomorrow we are going to make our very own molecules out of marshmallows and jubes... yum!  Watch out for our next post on molecule bounds.

 

PS: Congratulations to Noah (Room 19) for being the first student to be able to recite The Elements Song.  He earned himself a whooping 200 votes towards the class governance system.  Well done!  Who will be first in Room 18?
