Purpose: learn about the
Periodic Table used
in Chemistry

Resources Needed:

EXAMPLES - a full sheet of cards and
a close-up of
a single card.
Notice hydrogen
has a split
top and should be colored each top half for the 2 groups it belongs to.
grade 7-8
11 pre-printed sheets of
elements 1 through 88
scizzors
10 basic colors of colored pencils or
crayons (felt pens
bleed through too much)
chemistry information from your text
and the internet
*work in a group of at least 4
people at all grade
levels
grade 9-12 
11 blank white card stock
sheets and regular
paper to practice on computer to draw element design on-screen
scizzors
10 basic colors of colored pencils or
crayons (felt pens
bleed through too much)
chemistry information from your text
and the internet
*work in a group of at least 4
people at all grade
levels
 Your
Task:
grade 7-8
I. Cut
apart the cards and
arrange them on a large table top as seen in the Periodic Table of
Elements.
II. Color top half of the
cards for groups
I-VIII (from left to right) in the following manner:
*don't color in the characteristics
circles
| Red
= group I |
Orange
= group II |
Yellow
= group III |
Green
= group IV |
| Blue
= group V |
Violet
= group VI |
Brown
= group VII |
No Color = group VIII |
III. Color bottom half
of the cards for
periods 1-7 (from top to bottom) in the following manner:
*don't color in the characteristics
circles
| Red
= period 1 |
Orange
= period 2 |
Yellow
= period 3 |
Green
= period 4 |
| Blue
= period 5 |
Violet
= period 6 |
Brown
= period 7 |
|
*the Lanthanide
series belongs to period 7 so the bottom of the card is the same color.
IV. Read your text and check the
Internet to color
in the characteristics circles for each element.
Use pencil lightly or black lightly to
fill in the circles.

grade 9-12
I. Design
the element cards
as shown. Include the element characteristic circles as follows:
All cards have circles for =
metal, non-metal,
metaloid, transition, alkali earth metals, alkali metals, halogens, and
noble gases.
II. Cut apart the cards and
arrange them
on a large table top as seen in the Periodic Table of Elements.
III. Color top half of the cards
for groups I-VIII
(from left to right) in the following manner:
*don't color in the characteristics
circles
| Red
= group I |
Orange
= group II |
Yellow
= group III |
Green
= group IV |
| Blue
= group V |
Violet
= group VI |
Brown
= group VII |
No Color = group VIII |
VI. Color bottom half
of the cards for
periods 1-7 (from top to bottom) in the following manner:
*don't color in the characteristics
circles
| Red
= period 1 |
Orange
= period 2 |
Yellow
= period 3 |
Green
= period 4 |
| Blue
= period 5 |
Violet
= period 6 |
Brown
= period 7 |
|
*the Lanthanide
series belongs to period
7 so the bottom of the card is the same color.
VII. Read your text and check the
Internet to color in
the characteristics circles for each element.
Use pencil lightly or black lightly to
fill in the circles.
Suggested links: see table above.
Enrichment 
*
On back of the card write electron orbitals for
the
element in full up to Argon, by abbreviation after Argon.
*
Design a card game like MAGIC with the Periodic Table cards using the
properties
and characteristics of
the elements.
