How to use:

Distribute pre cut sets to students or use the jumbled version and instruct them to cut out their own version. The students work to arrange the cards into groups with a name, definition, particle diagram and example in each group.

Use the periodic table as a model to predict the relative properties of elements based on the patterns of electrons in the outermost energy level of atoms. Examples of properties that could be predicted from patterns could include reactivity of metals, types of bonds formed, numbers of bonds formed, and reactions with oxygen. Assessment is limited to main group elements. Assessment does not include quantitative understanding of ionization energy beyond relative trends.
