My daughter's chemistry class is celebrating Mole Day and has to design a t-shirt so I've helped her out with some ideas using ActivInspire. I thought I'd share what we have so far! (The flipchart is just one page.) :p


Celebrated annually on October 23 from 6:02 a.m. to 6:02 p.m., Mole Day commemorates Avogadro's Number (6.02 x 10^23), which is a basic measuring unit in chemistry. Mole Day was created as a way to foster interest in chemistry. Schools throughout the United States and around the world celebrate Mole Day with various activities related to chemistry and/or moles.

Here is the link to a Mole Day website:

And here are a few flipcharts I've found on Planet about the Mole:
