Periodic+Poster+Project

[|Periodic Poster Project]

There are three things you need to do for this project: 1. the four page worksheet that requires you to fill in the blanks using the links found on the site above 2. color a periodic table using one of those sites or the one at the bottom of this page 3. pick an element (there is a table on my desk you can put your initials on) and make a block of the periodic table using the instructions below:

Each student will pick an element. You then need to create a box for each element on the periodic table on an 8.5" x 11" piece of paper. The paper should include:

The element's symbol. This should be fairly large and in the middle of the paper. Element name Atomic number Atomic mass Other physical properties such as melting point and boiling point Discoverer (if known) A picture of the element (if possible); this picture could also be a common place the element is used An atomic model showing the number of protons, neutrons and electrons in the proper shells The elements period and group numbers Other interesting information (uses, interesting facts, etc...) Put your name in small font in the lower right hand corner Try to print your page in color
