PERIODIC TABLE Year 8

This document provides a chemistry lesson plan for year 8 students on the periodic table. The one hour lesson will teach students to identify and write the names and symbols of the first twenty elements, and arrange them in the periodic table. Key concepts covered include the structure of the periodic table with periods and groups, properties of elements in the same group, and rules for chemical symbols. Students will complete an activity to match elements and symbols, and for homework will draw the periodic table with the first twenty elements.

• DURATION OF LESSON: one hour
• TOPIC: Arrangement of elements in the
PERIODIC TABLE
• REFERENCES: check point chemistry by
peter .d. riley
• EDUCATIONAL media: microsoft teams
• PRIOR KNOWLEDGE: students have
learnt about elements and compounds.
Lesson objectives
• AT THE END OF THE LESSON .
STUDENTS WILL BE ABLE TO:
• Identify the first twenty elements.
• Write out the names and symbols of the
first twenty elements.
• Arrange the first twenty elements in the
periodic table.
The Periodic Table is a useful way to arrange elements.
The vertical columns are called groups.
The horizontal rows are called periods.
Elements in the same group have similar properties.
Three quarters of the elements are metals.
One quarter of the elements are non-metals.
Rules for chemical symbols in the periodic table:

1. The symbol is usually the first one or two letters of the


name.

2. Sometimes the old (Latin) name is used .

3. The first letter of a symbol id always a capital letter.

4. The second letter of a symbol is always a small letter.

5. Every element has a different symbol.


Now look in your periodic table and find the symbols
of the following elements, then find out if it is a
metal or a non-metal:

Copper …….. Sodium …….


Iron ………..
Lead ……….
Magnesium ………..
Gold ………
Chlorine ………..
Calcium ……..
Carbon …………
Fluorine ……….
Now look in your periodic table and find name that
corresponds to the following symbol:

Fe …….. Ca …….
Mg ………..
Na ……….
Ag ………..
N ………
K ………..
Ne ……..
C …………
Pb ……….
CLASS WORK
• Write out the first twenty elements
together with their symbols
ASSIGNMENT
