Make a Periodic Table Activity
​
In the activity below, students arrange imaginary elements into a periodic table, based on the properties of the imaginary elements: atomic weights, physical states (solid, liquid, or gas), and color. This activity reinforces the patterns in the real periodic table of the elements: each column (or group) contains elements with similar chemical properties, atomic weights generally increase from left to right and top to bottom, and gases are generally on the right.
​
Slides 1 and 2 have the instructions; slide 3 is the work of one of the stuents who did well on the activity.
