Reviews
Hello Breezi,
Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. My students also enjoyed this simulation. I chose to do this simulation before showing the movie Deepwater Horizon. Afterward, I created a fast-acting polymer lab for students to tie in the whole experience with oil spills in the environment. Creating this virtual simulation was also great for students who were absent for the physical lab. A great tool to have for a quick, seamless lab experience for students. I hope that you visit our store again if you are in need of a resource. Have a great rest of the school year!
Howling regards,
Gene & Koda, @Sibe Science
