Subatomic Particles and Quantum Physics
Subatomic particles are particles smaller than atoms. Quantum physics is the branch of physics regarding protons and photons.
For this part of course we had to create plushies in the shape of the type of particles we were studying. During the Particle Plushie project we learned about multiple dimensions, black holes, worm holes, time stretching,and subatomic particles. Learning about all of these new things really changes your perspective on things and confuses you especially all the things about the 10 dimensions.We read an article about colliding protons, quarks, gluons, W bosons, Z bosons, Tau leptons, Higgs bosons, electrons, photons, neutrinos gravitons, and muons which was a step closer to helping us understand about all of the particles that make up our universe.

What I am most proud is how they came out, like sure they might look kinda ugly but i'm proud of them. Something I would change would have to be the time frame, I felt like the entire project was rushed and I feel like just adding one or 2 more days would of made them look much more professional. This project helped me with my patience and how to be productive with the time I am given.
Here is an image of one of the many worksheets that helped us have a better understanding of particles in a fun way.
