We took one specific physic topic for the 10thgrade according to the physics curriculum in Turkey. Archimedes` principle isone of the most important basic concepts needed in the study of fluidmechanics. We decided to design a simple virtual simulation in Algodoo (phun)related to Archimedes’ principle. Smart board was used in order to make cleardemonstration. There were 37 participants in thisstudy who are studying pedagogical proficiency at Kırıkkale University, Facultyof Education in Turkey. Case study method was used and the data was collectedby the researchers. The questionnaire consists of 28 items and 2 open-endedquestions that had been developed by Akbulut, Akdeniz & Dinçer (2008). Thequestionnaire was used  to find out theteachers` perceptions toward Algodoo for teaching physics. The result of thisresearch recommends that using Algodoo program in physics teaching has positiveimpact and can improve the students’ understanding.  CR - Akbulut, Ö. E., Akdeniz, A. R. & Dinçer, G.
