Matter and the Periodic Table Chemical Families and Periodic Trends
Is assembling the periodic table as simple as Tetris? Scholars arrange colored cards into a logical order and then make connections to the arrangement of the periodic table. Hands-on activities include adding trend arrows and analyzing...
Curated OER
The Ties that Bind
In this bonding worksheet, students read about the types of bonds that hold compounds together. They are given fifteen common materials and they identify the types of bonds that hold each together.
Curated OER
Intermolecular Forces Worksheet
In this intermolecular forces instructional activity, students answer 4 questions about the forces between atoms within molecules and compounds. Students rank the boiling points of compounds based on their intermolecular forces and they...

Naming Binary Covalent Compounds
In this compounds worksheet, learners read how to name binary covalent compounds and then practice by naming 10 binary covalent compounds.
Curated OER
Using several learning modalities to teach about the Periodic Table.
Young scholars identify how to relate the position of an element in the periodic table to its atomic number and atomic mass. They identify how to use the periodic table to identify metals, semimetals, nonmetals, and halogens, and also,...
