What Do Atoms Look Like?

We have been wondering what atoms look like in Science with Miss Granger. Last week we went outside to see if we could make models of atoms out of nature.

Be sure to check out some of our Science links about atoms under the Learning Links tab at the top of the blog!

What do you know about atoms?

What items from nature did you use in your model?
