Material Detail

This is a set of packaged lesson materials for middle school, created for use with the PhET simulation <i>Build A Molecule</i>. It gives explicit guidance in using the simulation to construct simple molecular models. It was designed to help students distinguish atoms from molecules and build a fundamental understanding of chemistry nomenclature. Materials include complete lesson plan, warm-up questions, guided student activity sheet, and assessment. The molecule building simulation, which must be open and displayed to complete this activity, is available from PhET at: <a href="http://phet.colorado.edu/en/simulation/build-a-molecule" target="_blank">Build A Molecule</a>. This lesson is part of PhET (Physics Education Technology Project), a large collection of free interactive simulations for science education.
