About the store
I worked as an 8th-grade science teacher in the public school system for 8 years. During that time I was PLC lead, Science Department head, Safety Coordinator, County Wide Science resource team member, Grade Level Chair, and on the School-wide Leadership team.
After that, I taught online classes for Outschool for 2 years where I designed, developed, and taught my own curriculum.
I am now working on designing fun and engaging activities and lessons that you can use in your own science classroom.

Coloring the Periodic Table
Students use this table to fill in basic information about the different families on the periodic table. This document can be used as a note taking guide for whatever resource you have available; either online or textbook. After students fill the table in, they pick a color to outline the periodic table so they know the location of each family. This can be edited to meet your specific needs if more/less information is required.
