Young scholars list the names and symbols of common elements. They describe the present model of the atom. Students describe how electrons are arranged in an atom. They identify quarks as particles of matter that make up protons and...

Students research elements on interactive Internet periodic tables, take notes using Inspiration software, and write descriptive paragraphs with graphics. They create presentations.

Students explain how the elements are arranged in the periodic table. In this chemistry lesson, students determine the subatomic particles for certain elements. They research the physical and chemical properties of an element they chose.

Students demonstrate that isotopes of an element have different masses. They illustrate atomic mass and neutrons. The periodic table is examined in length. Display of a collection of atoms is surveyed.

Students intergrate science, technology and society into exploring the periodic table. They investigate one element of their choice and write a one page paper on the elements discovery, properties, uses, and the effect on society.

Students explore the rationale behind the arrangement of the elements on the Periodic Table. Using internet and traditional research, students compare and contrast the properties of elements on the periodic table to determine a...
