Periodic Table of Elements
Students use reference skills to locate information about the periodic table.
They identify elements by name, atomic number, atomic mass, symbol and properties. Students use mathematical processes to find the number of protons,electrons...

Reading the Periodic Table
Students explore the structure and function of the periodic table of elements. Though memorization drills and games, students working in pairs, identify the elements of the periodic table, their grouping, their properties and their...
Curated OER
Periodic Table & Its Trends
Students review atomic structure and then participate in a activity in which they categorize several "elements" into some form of order based on their properties. They discuss the trends they see. They also practice several electron...

Introduction to the Periodic Table
Eighth graders investigate the different elements of the Periodic Table. In this chemistry lesson, 8th graders pick an element to research, then present to the class using a powerpoint presentation or a poster.
Curated OER
Periodic Trends
Students identify the different periodic trends. In this chemistry lesson, students discuss how elements are arranged in the periodic table. They apply what they have learned in a Jeopardy team game.
