Element superhero/villain project

Element Superhero/Villain Project Pick ONE element from the Periodic Table that will power your superhero or villain. Sign up for the element ASAP. *The elements cannot be repeated – First come first serve. Start your research about the element today. You will have 3-4 days in class to work on this. The Project is due Thursday 12/20 at the END of class. We will have a Gallery Walk and Awards on Friday 12/21.

Element Superhero/Villain Project Poster Requirements: Picture Colorful (looks like your element) Creative Age (Atomic #) and Weight (Atomic Mass) Backstory - How they got their powers Strengths - Describe their Superpowers in detail Weaknesses - What will stop your character’s superpowers? Can be environmental or another element.

Timeline for this week Monday – Research your element Tuesday – Develop your character Wednesday and Thursday – Create the character sketch or 3D Model in class

Other info: Your character can have a sidekick if they need it to “activate” their powers. It can also be an environmental condition (example: they react to oxygen in the air) I will have templates of superheroes that you can trace tomorrow. I will also have aluminum foil and saran wrap that you can use for a 3D model. You can print a character at home and bring in to class, but you have to trace it and add the details on your own. You can also bring in supplies from home for your 3D model.

Google search – “interactive periodic table” https://www.ptable.com/ (Wikipedia) http://elements.wlonk.com/ElementsTable.htm http://www.chemicalelements.com/ The properties should be relevant to the character (describe the color, state of matter, reactivity, etc.)

Element Superhero/Villain Project Gallery Walk Place your Superhero/Villain poster on your desk. Put your other stuff on the floor or counter. Everyone will walk around the room and complete the chart on the front of your paper, as well as answer the questions on the back. Be on the look out for who would be on your team (similar element/family) and who would be your enemy (opposite element/reacts with). Also, vote for your favorite Superhero/Villain in the each category.

Superheroes : VilLains: *You can vote for any character twice. *You can only vote for yourself ONCE!
