Ideas to build atom models in class Extension classroom, Institut Joan Solà (Torrefarrera)

1. DIFFERENT OPTIONS

2. A WIRE SUPPORTS THE STRUCTURE
AND
SOMETHING SUPPORTS THE WIRE

7. ON THE FOOT
WE WRITE ATOM INFORMATION

14. EACH ELECTRON CONNECTED
TO THE NUCLEUS
BY A STICK

17. EASIER TO TRANSPORT

19. IMPORTANT FACTS:
• Pending models may need a wood or metal support
to pend it for exhibition.
• Electrons should be smaller than protons or
neutrons
• It’s difficult to make circular metal wires, they may
need a mould for a perfect shape.
• You have to decide where to add atom information:
 Name
 Symbol
 Atomic number = number of electrons or protons
 Atomic weight
 Electrons in the valence layer
 QR Code for detailed description
