In this Short Activity, learners fold up a precut shape to make a model of a buckyball.
“Exploring Structures – Buckyballs” is a hands-on activity in which visitors fold up a precut shape to make a model of a buckyball. They learn that buckyballs are tiny, soccerball-shaped molecules made of carbon.
OBJECTIVES
BIG IDEA
Buckyballs are tiny, soccerball-shaped molecules made of carbon.
LEARNING GOALS
- Buckyballs are tiny, soccerball-shaped molecules made of carbon.
NANO CONTENT MAP
