 Week 1
Lesson 1
Meeting 1: Introducing the Periodic Table & Atomic Theory
In Meeting 1, we delve into the Periodic Table and Atomic Theory. We explore the structure of atoms, their properties, and how they organize into elements. This foundational understanding sets the stage for comprehending chemical reactions and the behavior of matter on a fundamental level.
 Week 2
Lesson 2
Meeting 2: Atoms & Periodic Table of Elements
Meeting 2 builds upon our understanding of atoms and the Periodic Table of Elements. We delve deeper into atomic structure, electron configurations, and the trends observed in the Periodic Table. This knowledge helps us predict chemical properties and reactions, laying a strong foundation for advanced chemistry concepts.
 Week 3
Lesson 3
Meeting 3: Organization of the Periodic Table
In Meeting 3, we focus on the organization of the Periodic Table and color code the Periodic Table to aid comprehension. We explore the periods, groups, and trends in properties. Color coding helps visualize these patterns, making it easier to grasp and apply.
 Week 4
Lesson 4
Meeting 4: Hogwart’s Periodic Table of Elements
In Meeting 4, we take a whimsical approach by using the "Hogwarts Periodic Table of Elements" to enhance our understanding of the modern-day Periodic Table. By relating elements to the magical world of Harry Potter, we make learning fun and memorable. This creative tool helps us grasp the organization, properties, and relationships among elements more effectively. I also have alternate activities for students that do not want to participate in the Harry Potter activity.
