Periodic Table Gossip
If elements could text what would they text about? The periodic table is often a boring subject to teach and difficult to make relevant to middle schoolers. I created this worksheet for my sixth graders and they had a lot of fun figuring out this periodic table gossip. It gives the students a chance to become familiar with finding elements on the periodic table without being overwhelmed.

Excellent Elements, Awesome Atoms, and Mighty Molecules project
This short research project is intended for upper elementary school students. I teach 6th grade in Ohio, and this project is intended to meet the following standard:
6PS1.0 All matter is made up of small particles called atoms.
6PS1.3 Elements are a class of substances composed of a single kind of atom.
6PS1.4 Molecules are the combination of two or more atoms that are joined together chemically.
6PS1.5 Compounds are composed of two or more different elements.

Blank Periodic Tables with and without symbols
Ideal for primary/elementary classes! I apologise if the format is off. I made this on Word and used the "narrow margin" setting in the "Page Layout" tab, so please adjust if necessary :)These are blank Periodic Tables - one with NO symbols and an accompanying one with with the metalloids shaded in and an explanation of where the metals and non-metals are. Students can use the filled in table to learn the element symbols and fill in the blank table. Both tables only include atomic number, not we

Periodic Table Battleship
This is a great way to get kids to practice using the words period and group while getting acquainted with the periodic table. At a higher level you can have them practice the family names such as Noble gases or Alkali metals instead of Group numbers.
Another hint for memory is to write the words in their notes this way:
G
R
O
U

so they can have a visual reminder of which one goes up and down and which one goes side to side
