Activity 8: Exploration of Chemistry
For activity 8, students have a choice to explore other topics of chemistry presented in the PhET simulations. 
Tasks to be completed:
1. Choose any Teaching Idea from any of the Chemistry Simulations (http://phet.colorado.edu/en/simulations/category/chemistry ) and post your results/data and/or answers on your blog.
C is the Answer.
The answer is D (B and C).
The answer is B.

The answer is A.
The answer is water.
The answer is C.
2. Work with any of the Chemistry Simulations to create your own Teaching Idea. The criteria for this is as follows:
a. must identify and meet three (3) science education standards
b. must be original work
c. must be scientifically accurate and appropriate for the directed grade level.

For Fourth Grade

Show all your work with screen shots for each problem
1.First go on this website and use the one called build a molecule.  
2. Once it is open use the first kit to make water.
3. Then, go to the second kit by going in the lower right corner but the atoms. Then, at least make atoms make one more than the side says to. Fill in the side but you can show one more for extra credit.
3. Then do the last kit as well. Make the last three and fill the rest on the side. Then, you are done.
