Perfect for Grades 4–6, this hands-on science activity helps students visualize how atoms form molecules while exploring balance, geometry, and molecular structure through play and creativity.
Students use simple materials — marshmallows and toothpicks — to build a 3D model of a water molecule (H₂O) and discover why molecules have different shapes, what happens when atoms combine or change, and how the shape of water molecules affects properties like ice, liquid water, and steam.
