Atoms and Molecules!

We have already studied atoms from our electricity studies but Kayden wanted to know why people refer to water as H2O. So we ventured into molecules!

We took different colored grapes to represent different colored atoms and used tooth picks for our electron connections between the atoms and created molecules! The kids LOVED it! We made water molecules and pretended to drink them. We made carbon dioxide molecules and pretended to breathe them out.

And the boys were dieing to build a peanut butter molecule so here is our protein and oil molecules that we combined to make our very own peanut butter molecule!!
