How to construct a board game for science class ?

Autumn leaves asked:


I’m in 10th grade and we are presently learning about Atoms. We must make a board game. It has to be for people mostly 7-17 yrs old & must be fun yet instructive. I’m not asking you to do my project for me, but there are two questions in my mind still:

1) Do you have any ideas on what kind of board game I should do ?

2) What are some good sites and/or books that can help me make one ? (the materials used to construct the board, box, etc.)

Thank you !
