Students read the periodic table and apply their knowledge of the construction of atoms. They demonstrate reading the electron configuration of an element on the periodic file.

Fourth graders study the charges on ions and familiarize themselves with a quick way to remember charges based on location of elements on the periodic table. They complete a worksheet and share their answers with the class.

Pupils identify the type of bonding between two atoms of elements given their electronegativity values. They study the trend of electronegativity across the periodic table in small groups.

In this chemistry worksheet, students use the periodic table to complete the chart shown, filling in all of the missing information in the blank spaces. They identify and describe various elements found in the periodic table.

Students demonstrate that isotopes of an element have different masses. They illustrate atomic mass and neutrons. The periodic table is examined in length. Display of a collection of atoms is surveyed.
