Make AP Chemistry Fun. This product contains two lessons. It is written in Microsoft word so you can make any changes you need to fit your individual classes

Lesson Objectives:

The students will know the sub-groups of the periodic table

The students will know how to figure out how many protons, neutrons, and electrons are in any given element. The students will know how to identify the atomic symbol, atomic number and the atomic mass of each element.

Lesson One

Students will write a song about the Periodic Table

Included is a complete Rubric to help you grading

Lesson Two

There is a practice multiple choice, and free response worksheet. Get your students ready for the AP test in the spring

This is a 20 questions multiple choice test and 2 open response questions over the periodic table trends

The multiple-choice test covers the following trends and information

Atomic number

Atomic mass

Atomic radius

Electronegativity

Metals and Nonmetals

Ionization energy

Family names

Valence electrons

PS1. Matter and Its Interactions

HS-PS1-1. Use the periodic table as a model to predict the relative properties of main group elements, including ionization energy and relative sizes of atoms and ions, based on the patterns of electrons in the outermost energy level of each element. Use the patterns of valence electron configurations, core charge, and Coulomb’s law to explain and predict general trends in ionization energies, relative sizes of atoms and ions, and reactivity of pure elements.

Acclimate your students to the periodic table of elements using this printable and digital activity as an introduction or review.

Perfect for Sub Plans

The topics include: The periodic table, periods, rows, energy levels, groups, columns, properties of the chemical families, the periodic law, atomic number, alkali metals, alkaline earth metals, halogens, noble gases, transitions metals, non-metals, metals and metalloids and noble gas electron configuration
