Can be taught in any high school and accelerated jr. high science classes. Lab not needed. This game for science classes introduces quark theory to students by expanding on atomic theory and subatomic structure.
Quarks are the fundamental building blocks of protons and neutrons.
The game teaches students about the standard model of elementary particles, quarks, their symbols, masses, and charges. Overall Value Students are very interested in The Quark Box. High student interest is maintained by conducting all activities in two-person lab groups. The building games do an excellent job of acquainting the students with the quarks, their charges and masses. The decoding games provide important skills in factoring and interpreting results the way scientists actually receive them.
