化學社：關於元素週期表的元素

The periodic table. It hangs in nearly every science classroom. It's printed on shirts, shower curtains, posters, and socks. But what do you REALLY know about those 118 elements? In this class, students will get a chance to learn about every element on the periodic table- its name, properties, uses, the origin of its name, as well as any other interesting facts about it. Each week, we will look at a group of elements, briefly discuss their uses and properties, how they were discovered, and look at the origins of their names.

We will start class by doing an icebreaker question  Then we'll learn about each of the elements for that week- what they look like, where they're found in everyday life, and the origins of their name. Students will have opportunity to discuss what they know about the elements and at the end of class, each student will get to share which element they thought was most interesting for the week as well as answer some trivia questions to review what they've learned.

Weekly Schedule - please note that sometimes class questions and discussion can lead to not fitting in all elements for the week. I will adjust the schedule as necessary when this occurs.

Please note that each day's sections are on different elements- but all classes will cover all groups of the periodic table.

Students are welcome to join the class at any point- content does not build upon previous weeks- we will cover a new group of elements each week and will start back at the beginning of the periodic table after covering all elements.
