Week 35, Day 4: Nuclear Chemistry and Fallout

Even block.
Einstein's letter to Roosevelt and beginning of chapter 1 of Hiroshima then bikini island video


After reading to the kids about Marie Curie last class, it flowed to keep the radiation motif going. I read about the beginning of the Manhattan project, then the story of the Noiseless Flash (ch 1 of Hiroshima by Hershey) on August 6, 1945. Then I show them a video of an ABC show from the '90's about the bikini bomb tests.

I also spray painted spider decorations for a retirement party for a respected a beloved colleague.

 
I hope this helps.

Love to Teach, and Teach with Passion!

It’s not Magic, It’s Science!
