The perfect and concise introduction to any chemistry unit. Students are walked through the basics of atomic theory and structure. The notes include modifications in the way of visual representations of atoms, molecules, and compounds. I have my students cut and paste the notes on one side of their science journals, and then add the main ideas and clarifying notes on the adjacent page.

This can be used as a quick knowledge check at the beginning or end of class. It can also be used a a graphic organizer to add to students' notes.

This is a quick note guide to reading the periodic table. It can be used as a reference for students who are working on independent practice activities, but are new to the academic vocabulary needed. It can be a cut and paste in the notebooks, or a laminated set to be shared between classes.

This graphic organizer can be a handout to paste in student notebooks, or used as a visual anchor chart during independent work. The flow chart provides written descriptions as well as picture representations to show how elements, compounds, and mixtures are identified.
