The Periodic Table

Curated and Reviewed by Lesson Planet

Compliment your lesson with this periodic table presentation. The slides are clear summarizing the origins and main details of the periodic table very nicely.  The overall appearance, images, and bullet points are logical and some nice clipart images are relevant to the groups, periods, and families itemized.
