Unit 3
Unit 3 is the first topic I began to lesson plans for my advanced pre-IB chemistry students. This unit focuses on the periodic table of elements. Below are three links to student work from this unit. Images 1 & 2 below are from the first summative assessment for this unit.
Images 1 & 2: This Periodic Table Poster activity was a summative assessment for Unit 3. Students had to construct their own periodic table given mystery elements and create their own visual presentation of the information in this unit. Each letter represents an element. Each letter has specific information that identifies the element. Students needed to use their knowledge of periodic table trends and properties of elements to correctly place each element on the modern period table of elements. Students worked in groups and were allowed to use any information covered in class (ex. notes, homework, or classwork). This activity served as a way to assess students understanding of the periodic table and a way to review the major concepts before taking a more traditional summative assessment.
