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.

Young scholars explore an interactive program about the periodic table. They use the Kalzium software to dynamically explore the relationships between elements, the periodic table and properties of the elements.

High schoolers discuss transition metals, their properties, and where they are located on the periodic table as well as why transition metals are ideal for coins. After discussion, they conduct an experiment using copper in the form of...

In this percent composition worksheet, students calculate the percent composition of compounds using their formula masses and masses of individual elements. They solve nine problems including calculating percent composition, finding...

In this formula mass activity, students read about molecular substances and their formula masses. They find the formula masses for six compounds using the atomic masses of its elements.

Eighth graders explain what makes up matter.  In this atoms lesson students define an atom and what its components are and identify properties of elements. 

Middle schoolers classify materials. In this chemistry lesson, students examine the properties of solids, liquids, and gases. Middle schoolers discover the elements, compounds, and chemical symbols.

In this chemistry activity, students fill in the blanks with the correct word from the word list. They examine the arrangement of elements in the periodic table.

Students create a simple animation illustrating a chemical element in the periodic table. In this chemistry lesson plan, students create a new way to describe elements by using them in an artistic form.

High schoolers are introduced to the structure of an atom and Dalton's atomic theory through a short video and mini-lecture. They also take a look at the weight of mass and become familiar with the idea of quantum theory

In this chemistry science worksheet, students identify the parts of a chemical reactions. Students name the major particles of the atom. Students apply knowledge about the atom, theories, and models.

In this chemistry worksheet, students describe an atom, its parts, the charges of these parts, and atoms life functions. Then they explain what the octet rule states for the placements of electrons around the nucleus of an atom. Students...

In this science instructional activity, students write short answers for questions on planets, oceans, elements, and more. Students complete 20 questions.

Words, words, words! This presentation uses plenty of them to define the atom, outline the history of what we know about atoms, and explain atomic and mass numbers. That's all! Informative, but not interesting, this slide show would be...

Students research the history and uses of the different elements in the periodic table. In this chemistry lesson plan, students explain the significance of an element's valence electrons. They create a multimedia presentation of an...

Students practice drawing the atomic structure of several different elements. They complete critical thinking questions about atomic structure and compare the atomic mass units for different ions and isotopes of an element.

In this Lewis structures worksheet, students identify and describe what Lewis structures or dot diagrams are and how they illustrate the valence electrons in an outer shell. Then they use a periodic table to determine the numbers of...

In this elements worksheet, young scholars determine how electrons fill up the energy levels for the first 18 elements of the periodic table. Students determine if elements gain or lose electrons to form a stable ion. This worksheet has...

Students understand the difference between four different types of chemical reactions: composition, synthesis, single replacement, and double replacement and identify the type of reaction and predict the products of these types of...

For this conversion worksheet, students make the following conversions, showing each step. Students use the periodic table and express all molar masses to 1 decimal place.

For this outcome science 4 worksheet, students apply scientific knowledge to answer and calculate a variety of questions. Students research the answer to several questions using the websites suggested.

In this atomic structure worksheet, students use the periodic table to complete a chart for 11 elements/ions in terms of atomic number, number of protons, neutrons and electrons.

In this chemistry worksheet, students learn about matter, including atoms, electrons, protons, neutrons, compounds and chemical properties. They use this information to answer the 10 questions on the worksheet. The answers are on the...
