Periodic+Table+Project

Periodic Table of the Elements ||  A. Using the element assigned to you, follow the steps in "What you need to do ..." (We have included a rubric for you to refer to). B. Use and properly cite (MLA) at least three sources from the internet to complete your project (See list of sites below for a few ideas).  C. Complete your paper according to directions below.  D. Present your periodic table entry on poster board. || 2. Students will be graded on neatness, so apply yourselves accordingly! 3. Create an atomic Bohr model of your element. Make a key indicating the protons, neutrons, electrons.--these should be on the back of the entry 4. Include physical properties of the element (appearance, melting point, state of matter, metal, non-metal,  metalloid, hardness, malleability, etc...)--these should be on the back of the entry 5. Include chemical properties of the element (reactivity, corrosive nature, combustibility, flammability)--these should be on the back of the entry 6. Include the element's group number and family name--front || 2. Papers will include an introduction, a body paragraph for each required category on the rubric below, and a conclusion. 3. Papers will be done with 1" margins, Times New Roman 12 point font, double spaced paragraphs. The suggested length is 3-5 pages, but your emphasis should be on quality and complete coverage of required information. 4. Resources should be cited in a bibliography using MLA format. 5. Give some historical information: 1. Select a resource (perhaps from the list below or from your own search; remember that you need at least three!!)  2. Research your assigned element. (use this rough draft guide: )  3. Be sure to properly cite the resource.  4. Organize and write your paper according to "What you need to do..."  5. Construct your periodic table entry according to "What you need to do..." (we will have a work day for this later on)

 * || **<span style="font-family: Times New Roman,adobe-times,Times;"> Objectives: **
 * **<span style="font-family: Times New Roman,adobe-times,Times;">Students will apply their knowledge of elements and atomic structure to create a periodic table entry for their assigned element. **
 * **<span style="font-family: Times New Roman,adobe-times,Times;">Students will create a written representation of all required information for assigned element that complies with SEU. ** ||
 * || =**<span style="font-family: Times New Roman,adobe-times,Times;">Making use of the Periodic Table **= ||
 * || <span style="font-family: Times New Roman,adobe-times,Times; font-size: 130%;"> As a class, students in physical science will be recreating the periodic table on the wall of the classroom. As individuals, students will be researching an assigned element and creating an entry for that element to be placed in the classroom periodic table. Using the periodic table, students can determine physical and chemical characteristics not only for individual elements, but also for groups of elements: characteristics like atomic number, mass, state of matter, appearance, electron configuration, etc. The periodic table contains a wealth of knowledge in a very simple, easy to use arrangement. ||
