Fruit loops
Last week we made macromolecules out of cereal (fruit loops actually) which was quite fun! I learned how the molecule is formed and how some are long strings while others are in a big mess. We also played a game on how to make a molecule and it was sort of confusing but after awhile I got the hang of it! I really like hand on activities in class I seem to learn more when I'm actually doing it myself. It's actually really cool how each molecule is never the same looking around the room at the different models some have different color patters some random patterns and some are twisted or straight. It's all just a random mess of fruit loops that in a way teaches us how molecules are formed and how they look. I kind of wonder if there is a molecule that has the same pattern and the exact same shape in the world?? If so what would it look like?
