Not Dead Nor Alive
The Periodic Gang
The dreaded Periodic Gang is back in town. Led by a man known only as Mr. H,
he's famous for his explosive temper, and his willingness to react violently with other elements.
Introduction:
Marshall Homer Simpson/Marshall Matthew Dillon
"When they're done with these criminals there won't be enough left of them to snore."
Some low-down, no-good
varmints have waltzed off with ALL of the powdered
condiments from our local Dunkin' Donuts business! Can
you believe it??? All of the powdered sugar, all
the chocolate jimmies, all the multi colored sprinkles,
the powdered cinnamon, everything! They even
waltzed off with all of those little packets of powdered
artificial sweetners! They need to be caught to receive
the justice that they deserve!! To help us track
down these fools, we've hired two of the best Lawmen of
all time, pictured above.
My
Heroes
have always been Cowboys...The Task:
Your job is to
construct two or more "Wanted" posters
to help the public become more familiar
with the members of the Periodic
Gang. Using the Periodic
Table link, and the notes
that you recorded from the Nottingham
Periodic Videos website, utilize
the information to construct your Wanted
Posters. Use black text for most of your
poster, use RED TEXT for the information
you get from the Nottingham
website. Two posters are required, you may
choose to complete up to five posters
for this project.
Each wanted poster must include the following information: Element's Name, Element's Symbol, Atomic Number, Atomic Mass, Common and industrial uses for the element (What it's wanted for---get it?), Date of discovery, Who discovered the Element, Other Interesting facts about the Element such as its physical and chemical properties, and an image of the element, or of something made of the element. You MUST get information from both the Periodic Table AND the Nottingham Video about your element.

We
want
to thank you for your participation in this
project. It is through efforts like
this from kind hearted people like you that
these low down, no-good weasels will be
caught and brought to the justice that they
so richly deserve. So until we meet
again, remember that no one but cattle know
why they stampede and they ain't talking.
May your saddlebags be full, your
horse be happy and your six-gun rusty from
lack of use.
Happy
Trails to you...
