This is a fundamental activity for students to learn about the structure of an atom by playing with the number of electrons, protons, and neutrons in the simulation game. This will help them understand how the mass and charge of the atom changes. An accompanying simulation can be found here: https://phet.colorado.edu/en/simulation/build-an-atom
