- Who is the The Nucleus (6th Grade) poster for?

- Learn it by job, not by shape. Exams ask what it does. A wall chart earns its place by being glanceable from where the work is happening, so The Nucleus (6th Grade) belongs on the wall where that science work actually happens, within glancing distance, rather than filed away.
