High School Integrated Science Periodic Table Research
Purpose: Students will describe the historical development of the modern periodic table
and explain the organization of the elements on the periodic table.
Task: Students will make an informative booklet, pamphlet, or essay about the periodic
table. Students MUST include detailed information for each of the following topics:




Contributions of Mendeleev and Moseley
Describe/explain the organization of elements into periods & groups
Describe chemical characteristics of elements in same periods & groups
Compare/contrast periodic properties of elements (metal/nonmetal/metalloid
behavior, electrical/heat conductivity, electronegativity and electron affinity,
ionization energy.) HINT: Define each of these and tell how each of these relate
to the position within the periodic table.
This project will be counted as a grade (Total 50 points). The project must be turned in
by Thursday, Dec. 6. Please remember the BCMS homework policy: Any late projects
will receive a 10% deduction per day.
