ESSENTIAL QUESTION: How are elements arranged?
RELEVANCE: Why use a periodic table?
NGSSS: SC.912.P.8.3; SC.912.P.8.4; SC.912.P.8.5; MAFS.912.N-Q.1.1; LAFS.910.WHST.1
LEARNING OBJECTIVES: Students will be able to:
-Read and interpret a periodic table.
-Describe how the elements are arranged on the periodic table.
-Distinguish between the different families of elements and their properties.
BELL RINGER: Read the challenge. Highlight the section that explains which elements are the same and which are different on earth and on Chykogon.
VOCABULARY: atom, atomic number, electron, electron dot diagram, element, energy level, ion, isotope, mass number, neutron, nucleus, periodic table, proton, radioactive, valence electrons
HOME LEARNING: HL 9, study for exam
Students identified the problem by reading the background information as their bell ringer.
Students received HL 9, which is due next class. Print two copies. One is to be placed in your interactive notebook. The other copy is to submit. You can find the handout below.
This is HL 9. Be sure to turn in a copy to me and keep one for yourself.
Classes that needed to complete the notes and vocabulary (due to testing) did so. You can find the information for the notes on the last blog. Be sure to define the following: periodic law, alkali metals, alkaline earth metals, transition metals, metalloids, nonmetals, halogens, and noble gases.
We then worked on the Chykogon Periodic Table. You can find the handouts below. Be sure to place them in your notebook with this section.
Complete the handouts and place in your notebook. Remember, compare the Chykogonian elements to those found on Earth to discover their names and positions on the periodic table.
