Editing Molecule Dance (section)

== Demonstration ==

# Ask for volunteers from the audience. If you have an audience of 20 or less and have sufficient space, have everyone be a volunteer! Otherwise, choose anywhere between 5 and 20 volunteers from the audience, keeping in mind the size of the presentation space you have. Have your volunteers either line up or stand in a circle in the center of the room.
# Tell everyone that the volunteers will be doing the ''Molecule Dance''! Each volunteer represents a molecule or atom. They will be dancing and moving to represent the states of matter described. After describing a state of matter, you will say "GO", and they will start dancing. When we want to change to a new state of matter, we will first say "FREEZE" to make the molecules stand still.
# Have the volunteers start out as a liquid: they spread out a bit in the room, and move at a walking pace.
#* Next, have the volunteers go to a gas state: they spread out across the whole room, and can move at a jogging pace.
#* Have them return to the liquid state, then have them go to a solid state: they gather close together, and move very slowly.
#*''Optional: Have them return to the liquid state, then to the gas state. Finally, have them go to the plasma state: They are running, taking up as much space as possible, and are screaming the whole time.''
# Be sure to give the volunteers some applause!
