Atoms Day 3: Bohr Model of the Atom

FQ:  How do we best represent atoms?

Optional Project Introduction

Option 1:  Periodic table with "endangered" elements =  we are likely to run OUT of.  Check one of the 4 elements at the bottom for more info!

Option 2:  Periodic table with our every day uses for each element.

Option 3:  Periodic table with images of what each element looks like and facts

Where do elements come from?  NOVA: Elements Forged in Stars video

Why might elements run out?  SciShow video (1:00-2:00, 5:00-8:00)
