Building Atoms

IMG_5218

Students in Mr. Dossaji’s Chemistry class played the Atom Building Game.  In this game, Crusaders are instructed to construct different isotopes of atoms with marbles representing protons, neutrons, and electrons. Each player is given six neutrons, five protons, and five electrons. The object of the game is to construct as many stable isotopes as possible. The first player to finish using all his marbles wins. This instructional activity is a bodily- kinesthetic learning experience that complements the more traditional linguistic-based teaching of atom construction.
