History of the Atom Project

I am very grateful for Marcia's help with getting my 9th grade pre-IB Chemistry up to speed with the databases on connect.spps.org. She also showed them how to use easybib. Their assignment is to research the major contributors to our modern model of the atom: Dalton, Thomson, Bohr, etc. They then have to present what they learned in the form of a poster, skit, poem, rap, etc. The bibliography with complete citations from reliable sources is a big part of their grade...no wikipedia allowed!
