My students are smack dab in the middle of their mixtures and solutions unit, so I thought I would write a post about all of the little treasures I have made to help my students with these tricky concepts! First up, All About Atoms. To familiarize students with the periodic table AND what exactly an atom looks like, I will have students use buttons and markers to make an atom model like the one below. I thought that students could present these projects to their peers and then guess which atom it is. (Obviously they should probably leave out what type of element it is since that kind of gives it away! :)) This is actually part of the Mixtures and Solutions that I have just posted on TPT, but you can find it here as a freebie. Just click on the picture to be taken to the link...
Here are a few pics from the rest of the pack. I needed to organize the basic information for Atoms, Elements, Molecules, and Compounds in my own brain before I presenting it to the students, so I made a foldable outlining important ideas and information.
Next, a foldable for Chemical and Physical properties along with a sorting activity for students to differentiate between physical and chemical changes.
If you would like to purchase the COMPLETE unit,
click on the pic below.
OR Better YET, if you are in need of MORE science stuff, purchase the BUNDLE to get a savings!
Finally, I stumbled on a few neat songs to introduce the elements. The first one, by There Might Be Giants seems like a general introduction to some of the major elements and their uses, whereas the 2nd and 3rd versions are actual songs to help the students remember the names of the elements in their order from the periodic table. Click on the links to and you will be taken to YOU TUBE.
Next, I needed some resources to add to my science library so I browsed Amazon and found these books which I used to research for the foldable freebie that I designed on Atoms, Elements, Molecules, and Compounds. You can find links to these widgets in the Amazon link below!!
