What educators are saying
I used this along with other activities on a work day after going over the material in class. The students enjoyed this.
I used this as an early finisher work during Christmas to review the Periodic Table. My students always love a holiday-themed activity :)

Two versions are provided - they have the same 30 words, but one is decorated with pictures that relate to the words and the other isn't. (We find older students are quick to use the pictures instead of the periodic table, which is why we provide the version that has no pictures.)
Teacher Notes:
- No prior knowledge of the periodic table is required. Simply point out to students where to find the atomic number and symbol, and you're good to go!
- A clear and easy-to-read printable periodic table is included with the download.
- Related NGSS Standard: MS-PS1-1

NGSS5-PS1-1
Develop a model to describe that matter is made of particles too small to be seen. Examples of evidence could include adding air to expand a basketball, compressing air in a syringe, dissolving sugar in water, and evaporating salt water. Assessment does not include the atomic-scale mechanism of evaporation and condensation or defining the unseen particles.
NGSSMS-PS1-1
Develop models to describe the atomic composition of simple molecules and extended structures. Emphasis is on developing models of molecules that vary in complexity. Examples of simple molecules could include ammonia and methanol. Examples of extended structures could include sodium chloride or diamonds. Examples of molecular-level models could include drawings, 3D ball and stick structures, or computer representations showing different molecules with different types of atoms. Assessment does not include valence electrons and bonding energy, discussing the ionic nature of subunits of complex structures, or a complete depiction of all individual atoms in a complex molecule or extended structure.
