Week 14 - November 1, 2018 Periodic Table Practice

So, last week, I had to cancel classes because my dog was injured at the Doggy Day Care. I took him to the vet during the only time I had available (class time--boo!), but I'm glad I did because he had to get stitches on his lip and along his gum line! His little nose has discoloration from his injuries, but he his recovering nicely.

This week in class, we became more familiar with the periodic table by playing Periodic Table Battleship and by doing a Periodic Table Scavenger Hunt. The kids REALLY got into Periodic Table Battleship!

 

Here is a link to Periodic Table Scavenger Hunt worksheets that we did after we played Periodic Table Battleship. We also colored a periodic table graphic organizer in preparation for next week's discussion on atomic bonding.

Next week, we will discuss Atomic Bonding. Below is a short video for students to watch that discusses the basics of ionic and covalent bonding.

Additionally, students can get a head start on the notes for the next lesson which I will be referring to heavily.

Looking forward to next week!
