Elements Project -
 * Now that you have picked an element from the list below and it was approved by your teacher, you will start by researching your element. (Note: no two people researching the same one!)

** You must record the web address of all sites you acquired information ** ** or pictures from on the back of your poster or on a separate bibliography. **
 * Independent research (on the web during class __ AND __ on your own at home or at the library)
 * Google your element… only use information from credible sources!
 * [|www.webelements.com]
 * [|www.chemicalelements.com/elements/]

□ Physical and chemical properties □ Name and symbol (or chemical formula for compounds) □ Bohr-Rutherford Diagram (for elements that are not in italics – wait for lesson on this) □ Name of the chemical family it belongs to, if applicable □ When was it discovered? By whom? □ What uses does it have (either on its own or in a compound or mixture)? □ How common or rare is it? How valuable is it in terms of cost? □ How would day-to-day life be different if the element/compound didn’t exist? □ What dangers or hazards are involved with this element/compound?

Make sure to confirm your choices with the teacher before starting. (Level 4 is achieved by mastering 2 of these)
 * Deliverable Choice Board ** : Aside from the poster and presentation you must also create something else to spruce up your presentation.
