Today we worked on the clay atom lab.  Here we are learning about indirect observations.

Rutherford did a similar experiment using alpha particles to test Thomson's model of the atom.
Here is a video on Rutherford's experiment to help explain this.

We are using toothpicks to probe what is in the center of this "Atom".  We had four different objects that we are trying to identify using indirect evidence.    We will finish the conclusion on Tuesday. 

By the way we will have a retake quiz on the atom on Wednesday.
