Neil Bohr Atom model To build this you need - wooden board ( we used our broken taekwondo boards) Draw Bohrs atom shells and orbitals on the board with a pencil  Method 1: Drill some toothpick size holes and insert toothpicks and cut them and make sure they are atleast 2cm. Method 2: Use drill bit to carve some holes - Use christmas ornaments for Nucleus. Method 1: Use beads with holes to represent Neutrons, Protons and Electrons. Method 2: You can use chinese checker board balls as well. Example. Sodium : 11 protons , 11 neutrons and 11 electrons Nucleus :  Black beads - 11 represents protons Yellow beads - 11 represents Neutrons Electrons: Based on Aufbau principle, Hund rule and Pauli exclusion - K shell -  s orbital - 2 electrons of opposite spins - L shell - s orbital - 2 electrons of opposite spins - L shell - 6 p orbital of opposite spins - M shell - 1 electron  in s orbital 

The Little Prince -    Antoine de Saint-Exupéry A king with no subjects, who only issues orders that can be followed, such as commanding the sun to set at sunset. A narcissistic man who only wants the praise which comes from admiration and being the most-admirable person on his otherwise uninhabited planet. A drunkard who drinks to forget the shame of drinking. A businessman who is blind to the beauty of the stars and instead endlessly counts and catalogues them in order to "own" them all (critiquing  materialism ) A lamplighter on a planet so small, a full day lasts a minute. He wastes his life blindly following  orders  to extinguish and relight the lamppost every 30 seconds to correspond with his planet's day and night. An elderly  geographer  who has never been anywhere, or seen any of the things he records, providing a caricature of  specialization  in the contemporary world.
