Description: 

“Macro, Micro and Nano Memory” is a memory game that teaches visitors about the macroscale, microscale and nanoscale, the objects within those scales and the way we measure these objects.
Objectives

Big Idea: 

Size matters: things in the world come in different sizes.

Learning goals: 

  • Distinguish between the macro-, micro- and nanoscales.
  • Discover what types of objects are found in each scale.
  • Understand the units of measurement which are used for each scale.
  • Understand that there are many scales in the world, some which we can’t see with our eyes.

Universal design: 

  • Repeat and reinforce main ideas and concepts.
  • Provide multiple entry points and multiple ways of engagement
  • Provide physical and sensory access to all aspects of the program. Visitors can touch, see and hear different elements of the program.
