HI Sophia,  
I am on vacation but I thought  would write you a quick note and follow up
later if you have questions.


    This website--  look at the materials under Atoms and  Molecules.
 
There is a lot of material .  I  wrote this curriculum and designed the
models.      we use them at informal events, such as AAAS Family Science
Days in Boston last Feb.   I have done some evaluations and have a poster.

 Thanks, 
Kathy
