Use this model to let your students create atoms, placing the right number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus and electrons around it.
The model has a base that was made using 3 mm MDF board, that was cut and engraved. The pieces were made also using 3 mm MDF board that was painted with spray paint (red for protons and blue for neutrons). The electrons were made using colorless acrylic.
I modified a deck of playing cards, printing and glueing the symbol, atomic number and mass of several isotopes. The students draw a card and assemble the model for the atom.
There is a version in English and another in Portuguese.
