Students will be able to:Analyze given characteristics for a particular element and identify the type of element and probable location on the Periodic Table. Explain why elements behave in different ways based on their location on the Periodic Table. Recognize patterns and general locations of elements on the Periodic Table based on the type of element and its characteristics.
In this activity, students will observe and perform experiments with the elements …
In this activity, students will observe and perform experiments with the elements sodium, potassium, calcium, magnesium, sulfur and phosphorus. Conclusions will be made about trends down groups, across periods and relating to acidity/basicity of metal oxides vs. nonmetal oxides.

An interactive periodic table that provides not just the basic information, but also information about where the element can be found and how it is used.
In this activity, students learn the meaning of Periodicity, how and why …
In this activity, students learn the meaning of Periodicity, how and why the periodic table is organized, and some of the trends in the periodic table. They do this by playing a game that is sort of a puzzle in which there is one piece missing and they need to figure out what it looks like and where it belongs.

Students will gather quantitative information to construct a graph to show the period trends in electronegativity, electron affinity, and ionization energy. Once, the trends are recognized they will construct a model of these periodic trends using the Alabama Science in Motion Lab (Periodic Trends: Graphs and Straws).
In this lab activity, students will be asked to observe and then …
In this lab activity, students will be asked to observe and then test the properties of several different elements. In their observations they will be looking for the physical state, whether it is shiny or dull, and whether it appears malleable or brittle. For some of the elements they will also test the conductivity, malleability, and reactivity with dilute acid. From their data, they classify each element as a metal, a non-metal or a metalloid. Results will be color coded on a periodic table (e.g. Blue for metals, yellow for non-metals, and green for metalloids). They will use this to determine trends for metallic properties of the elements.
In this activity, students will be provided a blank periodic table and …
In this activity, students will be provided a blank periodic table and will fill in the electron-dot model for the first twenty elements. This will help students see the relationship between numbers of valence electrons and properties of elements.
