This is a great middle school science project to help get students excited about the periodic table of elements! Students can work independently or in groups to research an element from the periodic table. On the front of their baseball card, they will include images of the element, its name, and its symbol. On the back of the card, they will complete research to discover the element’s “statistics” including: Atomic number and atomic massElectron configuration (including a diagram)FamilyMelting
