| Element Superheroes Due date : August 12, 2013
For this project, you must do the following: 1) Choose one element – it can be any element you wish! However, you cannot have the same element as another person in class. **Be careful when choosing your element – sometimes it’s easier if you choose a more common element rather than one that was just discovered since you will be able to find more information about the common element (ex: Magnesium vs. Mendelevium) 2) Use the following websites to find out qualities (both physical and chemical) about the element you chose. Links to these are on my shared directory. http://www.chemicool.com/ http://www/hobart.k12.in.us/ksms/PeriodicTable/ http://www.chemicalelements.com/ http://www.webelements.com/ http://www.lenntech.com/periodic-chart.htm http://www.uky.edu/Projects/Chemcomics/ ** has pictures if you need inspiration http://library.thinkquest.org/12909/main2.html Fill out the Research chart on the back of this sheet to help you remember the details of your Superhero element. (It will be graded as part of your project.) 3) Design a superhero using at least 8 qualities - both physical and chemical. You must draw AND COLOR your superhero, as well as write a description (1 page in length) that illustrates his/her super-strengths and super-qualities. Your drawing should have at least 4 of the qualities incorporated, while your story should include all 8. Please note the properties of your drawing on the back, if it is not obvious. Underline each property in your story. Examples: If an element has a very high melting point, you may want to include that your superhero can walk through fires to save people. Fluorine can attack glass – it can be the only superhero that can “magically” make glass disappear. Also, make sure that your drawing corresponds to the qualities of your super hero. Example: If sulfur is your chosen element, the superhero’s uniform or hair or skin, etc. must be yellow since sulfur has a characteristic yellow color. Make sure your project is “final copy ready”, which means blue/black ink or typed, Correct grammar and spelling, neatness, and quality workmanship.
