Many schools have revised the sequence of high school science courses to be taken in the order physics, chemistry and biology. The Science of Atoms and Molecules is supplemental material, constituting about 10% of the course work and providing a progressive understanding of the centrality of atomic scale phenomena and their implications in each discipline. Upgrading the computational models developed in the Molecular Workbench, the materials allow students to experience the atomic world and build models that can be used to understand and predict macroscopic phenomena. Focused on the concepts of molecular biology, the basic physics of atoms and molecules is developed so that it can be further developed in chemistry. Student understanding of these concepts is leveraged to address ideas in molecular biology. For each of the three disciplines, two topics of two class period duration are developed for each of four strands: motion and energy, atoms and molecules, charge, and light. Professional development teachers need to use the materials and integrate them effectively into their courses is also developed as are assessments.

许多学校已经修改了高中科学课程的顺序，按照物理、化学和生物的顺序进行。 原子和分子科学是补充材料，占课程作业的10%左右，并提供了原子尺度现象的中心地位及其在每个学科中的影响的逐步理解。 升级分子生物学中开发的计算模型，这些材料允许学生体验原子世界并构建可用于理解和预测宏观现象的模型。 专注于分子生物学的概念，原子和分子的基础物理学的发展，使它可以在化学中进一步发展。 学生对这些概念的理解被用来解决分子生物学中的想法。 对于这三个学科中的每一个，两个主题的两个课时为四个股：运动和能量，原子和分子，电荷，和光。 专业发展教师需要使用这些材料，并将其有效地融入他们的课程，也是评估。
