Directions:
Your assignment is to make a flipbook* that shows the behavior of atoms as they
bond according to the models that we have discussed in class. You should be as
creative as possible. The more detailed your flipbook is, the better your grade
will be. You must come in after school to select which compound your flipbook
will illustrate.
It is highly recommended that you use a
computer drawing program of some kind to complete this project. Use of color,
by using a color printer or colored pencils/markers is suggested. Sheets of
paper or index cards should be cut into a handy size, not full sheets. Bind the final flipbook
together with a rubber band or a big paper clip.
Details: Your flipbook must include the following:
a)
The names of the atoms and resulting
compound.
b) The
type of bonding that is occurring.
c) All
chemical symbols, valence electrons and charges (if
ionic).
d) At
least 15 pages(frames) animating the changes from the
atoms to a compound.
e) At
least a one paragraph description of what your flipbook
depicts (written as the last page or the back of the last
page of the book).
Grading: Your flipbook will count as a 70 point
test/project grade
for the second quarter and be graded on
the following:
a) Adhering to the details above.
b) Accuracy
of the change from the atoms to a compound.
c) Creativity of your animation.
d) Quality of your flipbook.
GOOD
LUCK AND HAVE FUN!
