**Physical Science Phun!**

__**Objectives: **__ Explain the following: 1. Matter is made of particles called atoms and that atoms are composed of smaller particles. 2. The relationship between physical properties of a substance and its atomic structure. 3. The formation of compounds (ionic and covalent) and their resulting properties using bonding theories. 4. How the relationships of chemical properties of elements are represented in the repeating patterns within the periodic table. 5. The behavior of gases through the application of laws (Boyles Law, Charles' Law, IGL) 6. The factors that influence the frequency of collisions during chemical reactions that might affect the reaction rates (surface area, concentration, catalyst, temperature).

**The Assignment: Produce an educational WikiSpace! ** 1. You will be assigned one of the objectives listed above and create an educational wiki to share with classmates! 2. Using the textbook and Internet, you will research your objective and outline important material (notes) for classmates. 3. Your Wikispace must also include a minimum of 3 images to support your objective. 4. In addition to your picture, you must include at least 1 link that will take us to an interactice website that deals with your content material. 5. If you insert a widget (that is related to your content), you will get 5 bonus points!
